We have gotten a lot of new signups over the past few days, and we're all very excited to have you joining us! You'll find that people are more than happy to help you get started and learn how to use the site.

We have put together some resources to help new users get started:
You can also read:

These guides were published very recently, and we will be updating them over time. If you find that something is confusing or missing, please let us know and we can improve them further.
For an organized list of Canadian communities (provinces/territories, Cities / Local , Sports, Schools, BuyCanadian, CanadaPolitics etc.), see this post on !Canada@lemmy.ca. You can also ask about communities in places like !CommunityPromo@lemmy.ca.
We also encourage you to check out !NewToLemmy@lemmy.ca, so that others can help you / learn from your questions.
Welcome to Lemmy :)
Not a new user but I'm actually finally deleting my Reddit acct. Just updating all my comments and posts now using redact. The recent news about Elon getting them to massage their content was enough. Fuck them.
edit - 15 years of comments takes a fucking long time to update humourously I've been banned from multiple communities because of using redact.dev
I deleted my reddit account a while ago. Sometimes I still lurk, but it hasn't been the same lately. I was a redditor since 2010.
Welcome to lemmy! I hope you like it here!
Well, now I must give it a try!
