Interesting. I can see promise. I think this will be my stop if they kill relay for reddit.

Thanks to all who are working to make this site work

Is there an app for Lemmy?

Feels a bit similar to moving to Mastodon from Twitter. easier to browse here than finding people to follow on Mastodon though

How do we get as many people to switch as possible?

This is my first visit so I'm still trying to figure things out. I'm on the mobile website right now because I haven't been able to figure out how to log in on the Jerboa app. Can anyone tell me what "instance" means on Jerboa when you're logging in? I tried a couple different ones from the dropdown menu but they all said " incorrect login."

Instance is basically a server. All of the servers talk to each other, so you can post and comment on any one of them. But your physical account resides on only one server. Currently, you can't migrate your account from one server to another, but it's planned as a feature in future releases of Lemmy.

Your instance (server) is lemmy.world, so you need to type that in the instance field. Thus, your username on Lemmy (and in the fediverse) is [email protected].

Hello, world! A post has happened.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

First post, liking what I'm seeing so far! Appreciate that signup here was quick/easy, had some issues on other instances.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I'm looking forward to contributing! I still need to go through the list of communities to try and find what I care about, but that should be fun!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I just subscribed to Lemmy.world via Beehaw, which already has a good community. Looking forward to being part of the discussions in these new integrated frontiers :)

Hey, website works pretty great. I joined recently and was able to subscribe to a couple cool communities here locally and on other instances. Everything seems pretty awesome. Thanks for having me!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Quite intuitive. I like it. And I was easily able to find quite a few of the communities I like to follow. Cool stuff all around :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

So far so good

A bit confused but I think I'm getting the hang of it

I think I've encountered a few errors and issues but I think I can figure it out

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'm still mainly using Reddit atm as there is just so much more content to see and a few small Subreddits that I haven't found here. I also have not seen any porn here yet.

The blackout will hopefully bring more people (like me) here, as for those 2 days, I'll DNS block Reddit in my network to not accidentally use it during that time. Hoping to get more used to this here during that time.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think I have this figured out now lol. Hope people aren't too lazy to use this.

I'm hopeful. The Fediverse has certain things I like and approve of. I'm looking forward to having backups of all my Fediverse accounts to prevent losing things when servers drop off. I'm learning the interface again, with mixed feelings. Nice to be in the ascent of a site instead of the peak/decline.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I really hope this place gains traction. I'm too young to have been on Digg, but I hope to be on the ground floor for the next platform. I'm not a very technically educated person, but from what I've heard, that kind of business model Reddit has is impossible. It'd be localised to individual "subreddits", instead of the whole website.
