I'm trying out Jerboa but it keeps telling me I'm not logged in every time I try to do something.

Anyone else having this issue?

Quite excited honestly. Things feel like anything is possible here, a sense of optimism and possibility. One that reddit had many many years ago. I have good hopes for the fediverse way of doing things

Still getting used to it, so far I like it. Bummed to lose Reddit, but glad to have found a new place.

Thanks for having us! I'm excited to try this out. I am only just trying to figure out how all of this works.

I have subscribed to several communities now, but when I go to the main page, I still see the generic content that was there before I logged in. How do I view a feed of just the communities I have subscribed to (analogous to the front page on reddit)

Well, I am here and off reddit, and reading and commenting. So far so good! It will be interesting to see how this goes.

Seems pretty fine, more reddit-like than I thought it would be. First comment!

Was a bit confused about sign up at first but it was actually super easy here. Still have no idea what's going on.

Hello it's great to be here!

Pretty good, can someone explain how federation works with Lemmy? Are communities linked?

Thanks for having us! Much learning ahead for me though it seems, but this does look promising.

I'm loving it so far. However, Jerboa could use some work. The font size settings are wacky.

So far it is okay a little confusing to get started but not too bad, and it seems to be getting busier every day

First comment! Finally.

So far, I'm liking it! I enjoy the feel of the community here. I was mostly a lurker on reddit so it's nice to participate for once.

Looks clean and slick as well as familiar, many will find the transition smooth - excellent work!

I am happy whenever there is a fresh start. Brings out the flaws of my old ways.

This is a very different experience! I'm currently posting from a Mastodon server to a Lemmy server. I'm excited to see how a federated web can serve creators and users alike.

Thank you and Lemmy feels like it could really become a wonderful haven for us long time Reddit users.

so this is where we flee pala, hi!

Still trying to get my head around this fediverse stuff. I admittedly gave up on Mastodon pretty quickly because I just couldn't figure out how to work it, but I think I'm slowly getting the hang of Lemmy after searching out a few guides.

It's frankly really nice. The conversations here are more civil in what I have seen so far, and feel organic. I really love the "vibes" of this space and the fact that it is so much better than doomscrolling on Reddit. I have seen some very nice comments here, and have spent the last few days trying my best to understand what "federation" is. It is a bit daunting for a not-so-tech-savy person like me, but hey, it's great. I really hope it grows nicely and becomes a good alternative.

Thank you for getting this up and running, and to anyone reading, may you have a wonderful day :)

There are some features I miss. I always loved finding subs that allowed one to set a custom user flair, and I don't think we have that yet. And, of course, there aren't as many people, so some communities are just empty. Trying to figure out if a community is already out there or if I should try and make one myself, it's a little overwhelming to just start out. But... It's exciting. I don't know if this place will be a forever home, but it's promising.

I like it! Thanks for having us

Trying to get used to using a new system, but great to see the growing community here!

Where’s the home page? I subscribe but I always see Lenny.world. Please help

Thanks! It looks more like a Discourse forum than Reddit. I'll reserve judgment for now but after so many companies took their own platform usage we need something like this more than ever.

Yo what up, fam?

Been a wild six months losing Tweetbot, moving to Ivory, and now Reddit has decided to trip over itself. I’m eager to see how this site (and the general federated versions of the reddit idea) end up.

I’ve been here for a few days and love it! I have a community too, called allaboutfantasymedia which I hope to get off the ground soon.

Until now I really enjoy my experience on Lemmy. The UI is great and minimalist, and things actually work, unlike on Reddit lol
