My first lemmy comment
Today was my first day on the Fediverse via Lemmy.world, and I was so happy to see a Futurama Community among the top posts right when I logged in!
I hope it's also okay to say that I just created /c/Disenchantment for my fellow fans of a slightly related show. 😄
Any Futurama fans that also like Disenchantment and our one true Queen Bean please come join!
Hello. Glad to be here. I'm not going back to reddit, they nuked Sync for Reddit and I refuse to use reddit app.
rest in pepperoni RIF
Hi, all! This is my first comment on Lemmy. I’m exited to be here!
It’s sad watching Reddit go the way of the dodo, but I’m happy to see everyone come together to give the big ole fuck you to u/spez in solidarity and migrate over when they effectively broke Apollo and the other 3pd apps
Thanks! 11yr RiF user here and using Jerboa now, it's different but similar feeling:)
Now hop on the probulator.
Good news everyone!
What's to stop a single Lemmy instance from going "this is taking too much time and money to run, I'm shutting this server down"? I guess that can apply to any service, but monetization sometimes prevents that from happening. But in this case it's all volunteer work and running a server takes resources.
What happens to all the users created under that Lemmy instance?

Still trying to figure this Lemmy thing out. I have an account with Lemmy.World, but I can still post/view other instances if they are shared? Anyways now that RiF is gone, guess I'm done with Reddit. Glad to be here!

Cheers! Here's hoping for a bright future!
Thank you. Just killed my Reddit alter ego so let's vsee what this will bring us. Glad to be here.
Just migrated from reddit, and I’m really excited to see Lemmy gain popularity and grow! This is about to be my next addiction.
First comment on Lemmy. Is there a ELI5 for Lemmy to help get us started? I'm using the Connect Lemmy app!
Best I can say is that you have your local server, which is the server you originally signed up in. You then have all the rest of the connected (federated) servers that can see what you say.
Each server is its own mini-lemmy, so it is broken down into communities just like subreddits. Each has its own server administrators and each community has its own moderators.
Regarding content delivery, it seems to be about the same process: a link, image, video, or text from a certain community. The responses are similarly threaded with buttons for interaction.
The largest differences I have seen are that each server instance can have duplicate communities. Different servers have different tolerances for communities. In extreme cases, whole servers can be blocked (defederated) from your server. This is usually due to unwanted behavior from the users that is not curbed by the moderators or extreme communities that cause hardship for other users.
This is what I got after about a week of lurking. If I'm not correct, please let me know.
Came from RIF. Let's gooooo
Came from RIF. First post here, glad to be here!

We're all refugees here
Good news everyone! I’ve just smelled out an entirely new parallel dimension called the fediverse
