I know people are confused about how fediverse works and how to use it. This is an attempt to compile a list of beginner's guides made by some amazing people on this topic.

Lemmy.world Starting Guide - A beginner's guide to Lemmy by the admin of lemmy.world instance.
db0's New User Guide - A guide for new users on Lemmy made by head mod of r/piracy.
lemm.ee FAQ - Beginner's Guide by admin of lemm.ee
Michael Altfield's Guide - A guide on finding Lemmy Communities (Lemmy version of Subreddits)
Fedi.tips - A comprehensive guide for Fediverse and Mastodon. Useful for Lemmy aswell.

I will update this list if any new guide is made so you can save this post for later. Also, if anyone has any good guide to add post it in the comments and I'll add it here.

Brand newb here. Do i have to join all of them with different logins or?

[-] Purrington@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

No, but you can interact with different instances, like how I am commenting from beehaw.org instance.

I definitely need answers for this, too.

You can't reuse the login to difference instances, but you can interact with different instances, like how I am commenting from beehaw.org instance.

How does that work exactly? I am registered here, but want to subscribe to communities over on feddit.de It only gives me an error message on the bottom left that I'm not logged in when hitting "subscribe".
