I’m sure many new users are curious.
If you want Lemmy to be successful, contribute as much high quality content as possible so more people will be inclined to stay here. Don’t lurk.
Filter by New so you don’t see the same few posts every time to open Lemmy.
There isn’t explicitly a profit motive on here (unlike almost every other big social media site).
So you can do away with the clickbait-y, karma or like farming…
We don’t do that here.
This whole system is a lot newer than most services you’ve used on the Internet. It’s under constant change. Expect it to look different next week, month, or year.
Agreed. The systems are being flooded from the migration. Communities are quickly being formed. A little patience and people rolling up their sleeves to make it better go a long way.
Don’t forget to hit the CTRL button when clicking on any external links so they open in a new tab. Basically pretend it’s 2012 again.
Sort by all>top day, or all>new, or subscribed>new. Find an instance that is not defederated all over. Create posts and comments. Break your bad habits you had on reddit. And be patient. This is a platform that lends itself to organic growth and organization of content. The more you use it, the better it becomes. Lemmy etc are what we as a community want it to be.
