Lemmy

The best thing about Lemmy is that it's still so raw. There is so much potential for it to be turned into something really great. Then again, television was once like that, I suppose - so was the internet, now I think about it. Oh well, at least I'm not lurking.

Huh. So that's how you comment!

No Lurking from me!

In all honesty, Thankful to be here and have something to turn to. Excited to see the massive improvements Lemmy takes on over the coming months with traffic from reddit.

Silly question maybe. How do I search for other servers to join when in an app? Is it possible? I’m using memmy for iPhone.

Love it! i lurked a lot on Reddit unless I had very specific questions--I think it's cool having an opportunity to grow a community.

Yes! We want to read what you have to say!

It’s a bit difficult getting into Lemmy and the feediverse I gotta say. But after looking around for a while I really like how things work here, compared to reddit

Being new here I think I'll mostly lurk at first. But here goes my first comment anyways. Looking forward to a growing community.

Agreed! I am curious with this, how did you guys find out about Lemmy? In my case, I was scrolling through Reddit and saw somebody talking about Lemmy. I researched a little bit and here I am! I would love to hear from y'all tho

I'm confused by Lemmy but also excited to try and help it grow.

How does one comment here??

Trying my best! I'm trying to decide if I want to open my instance up to more users or not as well.

Don't tell me what to do

I really like kbin.social, but it's hard for me to figure out how to start a new Threaded post. I can add a new "article" or "link", but what about just a text post?

Also I am not sure how my home feed is populated - I can subscribe to federated stuff and local stuff, but most of what I'm seeing is not from anything I've subscribed to. Is it more like r/popular?

I wonder if it wouldn't be wise to try and emulate some of the easier/more participatable subreddits here. Askreddit theads for instance are a big pull (even if they tend to be. well, redditors post on them use your imagination).

Commenting for the engagement as requested, sir.

Was mostly a reddit lurker, have tried to change that by hosting my own lemmy instance and actually get involved in something!

I find it really hard not to lurk. So much so that the one time I got banned from a subreddit, I immediately unsubscribed from it because I knew someday I'd see something I wanted to respond to there and not being able to would be super annoying.
