Tips for a new user!
Reddit refugee here - stumbled across Lemmy as it was mentioned in a comment on Artifact but intrigued by this format and communities!
Looking for tips as a brand new user to get the most out of it - any advice is welcome! I’m using Mlem which seems to be working pretty well so far.
You're viewing a single thread.
If you’re on your own instance it’ll be very quiet until you start adding sub-lemmys (lemmings?)
You need to paste the entire link into your instances search bar and subscribe from there. Otherwise you’re taken to the instance it’s hosted on and need to log in.
Thanks! So I signed up to an instance and I can then filter by all and the option to ‘subscribe’ to lots of other sub-lemmys is available - still not really sure how it all works but definitely getting served a lot of activity!
If you know of a community and you can't find it in all, paste the whole URL in the search field ( https://lemmy.ml/c/linux ) and then you can subscribe.
This indicates your insurance there's someone interested in this community and it'll start getting future content
Only the first user would need to do this, for those after, the community will show when searching in all
