I have been on the edge with twitter and reddit for a while and I have finally deleted my accounts that I have had for a very long time there. They are no longer the places I used to know, even more so with twitter. I am ready for my new time here and on mastodon.

The two things that worked for me are:

  • Start with Lemmy Explorer (https://lemmyverse.net/) and look for communities you're interested in, and subscribe to them (it helps if you hit the little house icon and tell it what your home instance is)
  • Sort posts by "all" and look for ones that seem interesting, then look at the community those are posted in and subscribe.

Do that for a bit, then you can sort by "subscribed."

Seems to be a workable strategy.
