Is there an orientation manual for Lemmy? Honestly, Lemmy isn't even the first DDG result for Lemmy (the first result is the Motorhead founder).

What I really want to know is how to pull in forums from other servers because I'm used to a very curated firehouse of content from Reddit and Lemmy so far seems more about making do with what conversation and audience are available. I found a page from 3 years ago describing a somehwat programmery process to do so....

Also, is there a place to find similar reddit subs? My favorite sub on reddit was the subreddit NOT about literally fucking cars but about the importance of micromobility in a car-dominated landscape. Also: cats who look like Ron Perlman.

How come following users is so difficult?
Someone tell me how to do this properly please.

This might be the blind leading the blind, I but I don't see an option to do that on your profile page in my web or in my app.

I'm not sure what app you're on (or if you're on browser) but I think you favorite them from their profile page? I'm still new as well so I could be wrong.

Is this something you remember doing at least once? I don't see anything to follow on web or app from the profile or comment page.

Not a thing here.

[-] iocase@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago

Well it is now because I just favorited you, whatever that means.

I feel so special.

Watch Reddit die. Pray for Reddit to die. Help Reddit die.

Rules

  1. No Reddit shills or trolls. But if you have a good argument for why Reddit should live, we'll hear you out.
  2. Try to be civil and intelligent. Be angry at Reddit, not each other.
  3. Provide evidence as much as possible without doxxing or harassing people.
  4. Should probably avoid linking directly to Reddit. Use archive.today and archive.org links.

Will add more rules as needed.

If you're concerned that your post might be astroturfed/brigaded by pro-reddit individuals, give us mods a heads up beforehand, and we'll try to monitor the thread.
