Still learning where to find stuff, and unfortunately most of "my" subreds aren't here (yet), but it looks promising and will continue to support.

[-] Aliktren@lemmy.world 16 points 13 hours ago

Yeah pretty much but weaning off reddit is good

[-] FundMECFSResearch 14 points 12 hours ago

Feel free to recreate your favourite and try to grow it here :).

!fedigrow@lemm.ee is a decent resource for that.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 12 hours ago

Also consider joining more general communities

!jrpg@lemmy.zip is a community for all Japanese RPGs for instance

[-] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 hours ago

You can use the universal https://lemmyverse.net/ to see if your favourite communities exist.

Welcome ! Indeed, niche topics need a larger userbase, hopefully we'll get there over time

[-] vatlark@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

sometimes they have different names.

you can also create any community you are missing. If you use the same name as the reddit community then people will be more likely to find it and contribute.

[-] Sados@lemmy.world 16 points 12 hours ago

I like it so far :) Bit confusing sometimes and I'm still trying to find communities that I like and are active.

I hope that many more make the switch from reddit, but I can also see why some people might find the Initial setup confusing or anoying. I think it just takes some time to get used to Lemmy, so I hope a lot of people try it out and stay

I just joined and i'm exploring right now. It's looking good ! Of course it will be easier in a few days but i'm honestly pleasantly surprised !

Welcome! For French speaking communities, !forumlibre@jlai.lu and !support@jlai.lu should be useful

I like how Lemmy actually grew in size after i left it after the Reddit moderation problem of a couple years ago. All in all, it's all kind of overwhelming but maybe I'm too emotional.

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 14 points 12 hours ago

Haven't checked Reddit much since creating this account. Thought I might use both but Lemmy is genuinely much better. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to visit the original instance from within voyager and how to make my feed more diverse. Currently it's very politics heavy and I don't wanna unsub from those communities but other stuff kinda gets burried.

Top left of your feed, hit the arrow and at the top left you'll see the option to view only subscribed or all posts on your local instance (or all posts from all instances).

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 12 hours ago

I would use two accounts, one dedicated to non politics communities

!communitypromo@lemmy.ca can help discover some of them

New world to explore, keep clicking and wil see where I end up!

[-] Monoi@feddit.it 5 points 10 hours ago

Just arrived. It seams great.

[-] DreasNil@feddit.nu 5 points 10 hours ago

I’m a little bit confused still but haven’t had the time to read through any FAQs. I don’t know how to access my account in a web browser for example (I’m using an iPhone app now).

So thank you for those links! Will have a look.

[-] End0fLine@midwest.social 6 points 9 hours ago

The website you would go to in your desktop browser is feddit.nu.
