I created my account at sh.itjust.works but I don't fully understand Lemmy yet. Finding communities seems confusing.

Well, hello from feddit.de! Since I'm a german user I thought it'd be only logical to register on a german instance. While new registrations are semi-locked, the criteria for being let in are quite easy to pass and they are mostly in place to filter out spam. Got my account approved right on the next day

I just hope it lasts, worst thing would be if people just went back to reddit

That looks like a missed opportunity to me not using fedd.it :-)

I think they should make a video guide to lemmy and link it on the join page.

I tried to start a kbin instance today and I literally ended up corrupting or deleting debian off the VPS.

So look I'm tryin' but uh...give me a little time.

I've had a lemmy.ml account for a little bit but I'm trying out a lemmy.world account as I was put off by some of the things I heard about the original server.

New user, signed up on an alternative. It isn't intuitive to add a community from another server. Got there eventually though!

I'm so sorry, I haven't seen the pinned post before registering. Maybe add notice to registration page?

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

First one I heard about was Lemmy.world, and for a short time I thought others were just "imitation offshoots", taking time to learn the system. There's still not a simple summary to send people, at the very least it can open simply as "Here's some non-Reddit Reddit sites"

[–] fernandu00@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago

Well I tried beehaw but I after creating an account I had to wait to be accepted.. 1 hour later couldn't login so I went to lemmy.ml and it was instantaneous so..here I am

[–] hydra@lemmy.one 9 points 2 years ago
