There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

Sup.

I'm not really new (was on Mastodon.social years and years ago, now self host my own instance, also have been on a different Lemmy instance for about a year).

I've had an account on Reddit for awhile, deleted it, then made a new one, but now thinking of deleting it again. I made an account here in case something happens with my other Lemmy account because that instance is relatively inactive. Also I'm Canadian and I think that part of my identity takes precedence over any other consideration so having a Lemmy.ca profile makes sense.
