Now that a lot of 3rd party apps for reddit have shut down there have been loads of new users joining the various Lemmy instances. So who got here today and what has been your experience so far?
I’m here to help should you have any questions about Lemmy, lemmy.world or life in general (I can not really recommend that last one).
Anyway, welcome! Hope you enjoy your stay 😁
EDIT: I created seperated threads for this not too long ago but I think it’s useful to post them again.
- Some things might still be confusing to people, I read a comment below about someone not knowing how to browse content from different instances for example. I really suggest you read this post by lemmy.world admin @ruud which does a wonderful job to explain a lot of it.
- If you’re wondering what 3rd party apps there are available, this thread seems to list them all!
I just got here after looking for an alternative to Reddit. So far, I have to say I’m quite impressed by how well it works. I haven’t had any major issues yet. I hope Lemmy gains some traction and will continue to grow, but I also hope it doesn’t grow too quickly.
I still end up on Reddit every now and then when a search takes me there, but I don’t go there to browse anymore.
Glad to hear, welcome!
