For everyone new to Lemmy, how are you finding the experience?
I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I'm a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It's definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it's great to see something that isn't Reddit growing in popularity!
Joined kbin and checking out Lemmy through feddit.it
I have a questin though: I wanted to subscribe to a medicine community in a different server but I can't find it when I search through "all" communities in feddit.it. How do I go about finding and subscribing to it?
First, you need to find the identifier for the community you want to follow (for example, the community we are in right now is !asklemmy@lemmy.ml) from the sidebar. Copy it, go to your instance (feddit.it) and paste it in the search field. You should find the community as a result there and a button to subscribe. Another alternative is to go to the link https://YOUR-INSTANCE/c/COMMUNITY-ID-WITHOUT-THE-BANG (example: feddit.it/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml). If it does not appear maybe this specific federation has perhaps been forbidden by the owner of feddit.it
I remind you that to facilitate our work as administrators of the feddit.it instance, this is expressly reserved for Italian-speaking users. if your reference language is English, I therefore advise you to cancel your account and create one in an English-speaking instance
In any case, you can monitor any new communities of your interest with the tool made available by the administrators of feddit.dehttps://browse.feddit.de/
