First I need to understand how all this works. fedia, lemmy, mastadon, fediverse, etc. I don't really understand what it all is and how it works. Suggestions from one user to another from a different "place" don't translate. Someone told me to look at /all. Like, where is that? I don't see anything like that. It's all a confusing, jumbled mess. It's melting my brain and I don't know if I can stick around. I don't see any kind of notifications either, so if someone responds to me, I probably won't see it unless I remember where I posted and to go manually check.

Already spammed "shitposting" community with...shitposts. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

good point. For the first time ever I am now a mod - wish me luck. Re-introducing: /c/theyknew

Hello everyone! I must say that it's a bit confusing and all, especially finding new communities. But it seems like it has lots of opportunity!

hi

This comment is my first contribution to the platform. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing yet, but I'll figure it out.

My worry is that I only started a year or so ago on that other platform, and most of my contributions are comments and some photos when I can get my garbage podunk internet to let me upload the latest smoked meat or garden haul. I don't think I'm a "laying the groundwork" type of user, honestly. If there are any guides or walkthrough on navigating instances and whatnot, I'm all eyes.

I already reeeeeally miss a couple wonderful communities. But I want the best versions of them here, if at all. I'd love to help expand this place.

I guess there could be worse first comments for an account.

ETA: spelling is hard.

I've officially exceeded my reddit post count, not saying much, but I'm trying

It's a good mentality to have.

I kept looking for communities and not finding them, so I started making them. Then adding posts to those communities, and to my surprise people do come and upvote and comment.

I'm yet to find a way to see memes etc. But I'm sure with the influx of people it will all come together

I'm not a particularly entertaining or creative person outside of my music (which I don't think anyone would care about), but I do like to post and interact with text posts like AITA/NoStupidQuestions/ChangeMyView/etc, so I look forward to taking part there.
