My first post as a refugee! Glad this place is here to fill the void.
Welcome, Bill!
This whole fediverse thing is a bit strange after 10 years of rif. But Reddit was going downhill for quite a while. Hope this takes off!
After 3 weeks of use, it still confounds me.
I think I've figured everything out, except how to link to posts across servers. That still drives me mad. Some of the apps (like Connect for Lemmy) are doing URL rewriting, but I can't assume that's happening for everyone.
It's pretty strange coming from Reddit. Each instance has its own communities but you can access all of them from the instance you signed up in? Like the equivalent of subreddits within subreddits. Or maybe I'm just unused to it.
Joining the party as RIF kicks the bed :')
You're all the technology-savvy intelligent ones who figured out Lemmy right away, months ago. I was trying to get into Lemmy even before July 1st but finally figured it out today November 10th! I finally got into Lemmy today. It was nearly as difficult as applying & repeatedly being rejected for competitive employment somewhere. sheesh.
Gonna miss RIF.
Yup. Little pang of sadness seeing it finally gone. I got years of procrastination out of that app.
Very sad to say goodby to RIF after 9 years. Lets get this party started and I got some learning to do in this new environment.
I joined 2 weeks ago, I technically am a migrant lol but I feel like a veteran already .
WELCOME REDDITORS!
Tell us about the before-times, gramps!
We used to struggle without our beloved pre built subreddits!
We had to pray to our instance develop lords with praise for giving us space!
Fr fr tho this experience is historical and I'm learning just as much as you! I learn if there's a community missing that you used to frequent, make it yourself!
I ended up making [email protected] to fill my GOAT manga needs
I straight up don't know how to use Lemmy. I feel like I need to relearn how to ride a bike.
Set feed to All. Scroll. See interesting topic you want to see more, subscribe to community. Interested in specific topic? Search for community in communities page. Once you gather enough subscriptions, set feed to subscribed. Scroll.
I've been here for a bit more than a week now and my biggest advice and is to take it as it is. Take a deep breath, accept that this is Lemmy and not something else, and that you're feeling it out. This is not relearning a bike, this is getting in a peddle boat for the first time. Similar, yes, but also it's own thing.
Are this active users? (Commenting/posting) or just traffic?
I ask as I spent time in different servers looking for one I liked before making an account, so it took a while before I became an 'active user'
Lemmy only counts activity as commenting or posting. Unlike Reddit which counted any eyeball on a post as active. However, this is a traffic graph from the server, not from Lemmy itself.
that is cool. there is no such thing as too many graphs, so don't be shy in the future π
Do we have a dataisbeautiful yet?
Second ever comment here. I watched Apollo shut down live, went to sleep and then immediately tried opening it up again after waking up, out of habit - girlfriends still asleep and I got so used to browsing Reddit for a bit before we get up on weekends, it has become muscle memory.
Using Wefwef currently and itβs nice, awesome work especially for a web app.
I joined a few weeks ago but after RIF died just over an hour ago it looks like I've found my new home.
Hello, my first comment here. How do I save images? (Iβm using wefwef app for ios btw)
We are still going on infinity.
π to everybody who's making this possible. There's hoping that all the traffic can be managed
Welcome
Was browsing Apollo, it ceased, I opened the Reddit app once, closed it, signed up for Lemmy.
I just moved Memmy into Apolloβs old place on the home screen. Iβm not touching the official reddit app.
Same but from Reddit is fun
