It seems alright. Just created this account.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Just been approved for my account. It's a little different but looking forward to getting used to it. Also FU Spez.

Hi! New here, likely escaping from that other place.

I'm curious -- How are y'all feeling about server load? What seem to be the limiting factors on capacity of a single instance?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Sup doods! Hoping we can make a nice less spezzy space here

[–] [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.

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

I like it. Bringing over some No Man's Sky people. Is there a shorthand way to link communities? Like typing /r/NoMansSky would link to the subreddit on reddit, but /c/NoMansSky doesn't link to the community here. Would be a cool future feature if it's not one now!

Just getting the hang of it. Jerboa app for android is very nice to have - sometimes find it hard to search up a community in another lemmy server even when I know the same (I think the search is case sensitive?). That's on the mobile web interface... Haven't figured out how to find a new community on jerboa itself yet

I'm liking it but if there's a search function I'm not finding it? Like, I want to go looking for communities by topic.

I just got here, figuring things out slowly

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Conceptually I think this is really cool. General question - I know you can interact with different instances, and presumably there are communities that are highly active that are not on my home instance. How can I search for those communities?

Thanks for starting this!

Still learning my way around, but I want to give a special shout to Jerboa, it's not Relay or RIF (yet,) but it's already miles better than what they did to AlienBlue.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I found the process a bit confusing at first, but I've really come to enjoy it.

There are a few enhancements that could really make it shine, one that I saw and really would like is a community tagging system. You could view all communities tagged as e.g "technology" in one view, helping stop communities being so splintered.

I am wondering about hosting my own instance to help spread the load, but community moderation doesn't interest me very much.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I am hoping this takes off. Still poking around trying to figure everything out!

[–] [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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Haven’t been on long enough to decide how it functions, but the aesthetic remind me a lot of Alien Blue, so I’m a fan so far.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Thanks. So far, I'm really enjoying Lemmy. What I really miss is a good iOS client. But I guess it's hard to build something like Apollo...

I'm scared and confused and don't know where all the cat pictures are.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Hey thanks, glad to be here. Lemmy seems very promising!
