Hey everyone!

I'm Nick (he/them), I'm 20 and I'm looking for Fediverse friends! I'm former military, and now I'm trying to get into college (Chemical Engineering). I'd love to make friends in STEM, but anyone is welcome!

If you wanna be friends, let me know!

If this is the wrong sub, sorry admins. Idk where to go :(

Don’t worry, sooner or later Nicole will reach out and make friends.

I'm starting to get worried lmao

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Nah, don't. It's just a well known spammer that was here for a little bit. I've gotten one or two messages from the account, that's all

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

I'm up to four or five. Honestly, we should keep track and see who gets the high score

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Haha yeah I was joking. Haven't come across her yet. Maybe some day

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I can introduce you to her.

Edit: wait... the community doesn't exist anymore??

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

It seems like it does still exist. The latest post was made just an hour ago.

Be aware that saying that you like nintendo is dangerous on lemmy

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Oops... Well, I don't like the company itself, more like the games since they were part of my childhood :)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Uh oh... What did I do this time?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh I was just kidding because of how similar Nick is to Nicole, and evidently I don't have to tell you about her haha

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Oh yeah I'm getting a bunch of Nicole comments on my posts though I haven't come across her yet xd

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Follow communities and hashtags to get started

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I didn't know you could follow hashtags! Thanks. And then what? I message people? Is there a messaging system here? Sos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

There is a DM system, but that's not really what Lemmy is for. It's basically a reddit alternative. So blogging in various communities. Find topical communities based on your interests, read what people are posting, comment or post your own.
