Welcome!

I'll be monitoring performance of the coming months and will make upgrades as necessary.

Welcome to LemmyUSA

LemmyUSA was created to help distribute the load across the Lemmy network. New Lemmy users are always welcome here.

Our goal is to provide a reliable home instance for anyone who needs one. Whether you plan to mainly interact with communities on other instances or build your own here, you're welcome to make LemmyUSA your base in the fediverse.

What is Lemmy? Lemmy is a federated link aggregator and discussion platform. Think of it like email - just as Gmail users can email Outlook or Yahoo users, your LemmyUSA account can interact with users and communities across all Lemmy instances. This means you can participate in discussions anywhere in the Lemmy network, regardless of where your account is hosted.

About LemmyUSA

LemmyUSA is built for the long-term as a stable, reliable instance. We've implemented several professional services to ensure quality:

• Reliable cloud hosting through Elestio
• User Interface through Photon
• Regular backups and monitoring

We're committed to being transparent about our operations. You can find our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and community guidelines in our sidebar or here.

Moderation and Community

We maintain a general-purpose instance that welcomes all legal content and discussions. Our moderation approach is straightforward: follow U.S. laws and basic standards of civil discourse. We believe in minimal intervention while maintaining a functional platform.

If you have questions or need assistance, you can reach out at [email protected].
