Some people have been asking which communities they should join first, so I posted some remote communities you can subscribe to on the sidebar on the homepage :)
There's also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn't matter!
Just wanted to say, thanks for hosting this instance! I'm a reddit refuge and this Lemmy instance has been really straightforward on how to get started.
Join us for all your sports talk over at https://fanaticus.social! We've got communities for all the major sports and their teams.
I also spent the past week forking the popular game day bot, redball, in order to bring game bots to lemmy! There are still a couple of kinks I'm working out but I've begun rolling them out to the teams' communities, starting with the baseball communities.
I was going down the universal search tool list, subscribing to the communities that I was interested in, and I ran into an issue trying to sub to some of the communities. Thankfully I was able to quickly find the answer - anything that is on the block list under https://lemmy.one/instances you are not able to subscribe to from this instance.
I'm late to getting games so I was very happy to find https://sh.itjust.works/c/patientgamers with how patientgamers was one my favorite communities back on reddit.
While traditional science fiction often presents humans as vulnerable masses seeking refuge from menacing aliens or as feeble beings overshadowed by aliens with superior logic, strength or empathy. HFY disrupts these archetypes by challenging the norm.
In the world of HFY, humanity is bestowed with exceptional qualities, giving rise to a sense of optimism and empowerment within the reader. It seeks to uplift and inspire, demonstrating the potential of human greatness and the capacity for overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds.
I appreciate you taking the time to share! I’ve only messed with Mastodon briefly and the fediverse is a little challenging to navigate at first (in my opinion).
I’ve been a lurker on the subreddit for ages and when I saw your post I decided it was time to check Lemmy out. Thanks for taking the time to set up an instance to keeps the community alive as Reddit implodes. Hopefully this works out or at least can act as a temporary home until we can figure out what is next.
I think the reddit hug of love is affecting things today on the 12th.
Just a general question, on a mobile device is using your browser or an app the better experience? And if using an app is Jaebra the one most people use?
Does anyone know if you can hide posts in Jerboa? This post and a lemmy.one welcome post are pinned at the top of my feeds, and they take up a lot of room visually. I'd also like to hide posts I've already seen, as on smaller communities I only want to see the occasional new posts, not see the same post from 3 days ago every time.
What am I missing? I have subscribed to a few lemmy.ml communities here, but despite seeing https://lemmy.ml/c/overwatch2 as an extant community, trying to subscribe to !overwatch2@lemmy.ml returns errors/not found on lemmy.one's side. Is this community blocked here?
Also, I'm so excited to be here! Everyone seems a little bit nicer. I hope we continue to grow and that the overall kindness sticks around. I saw a lot of the civility going out the window at Reddit over the last couple of years and it was disappointing. (Edgelords suck.)
Join us in !brainfood@kbin.social (direct link) if you'd like to share and watch interesting/educative videos that generate (scientific) wonder, curiosity, and/or understanding.
Anyone aware of an arts/culture community that’s not about posting your own work but more about cool exhibitions and performances across the art world?
Hello, still learning how this all works. I know I'm in the minority here, but has anyone come across any communities on lemmy that deal with karate, aikido, taiji chuan, brazillian jiu jitsu, or martial arts in general?
I think I found some communities to replace the programming subreddits I belonged to thanks to the suggestions here. Still looking for one to replace r/sysadmin.
Personally, I am looking to make a permanent move off of reddit and I appreciate the time and effort this took to get this instance into place and helping people figure out how to use this, Thank you.
Found a few very small communities with just a few posts from the universal search tool, when I search for these (they are on other instances) I can't find them. They are not on a blocked instance (both are on lemmy.ml), am I doing something wrong or is there some limit in size of community that are reachable through federation? Thanks, am very new to how the federation works in both Lemmy and Mastodon.
If anyone else is missing Breaddit as much as I, [!bread] (!bread@lemmy.ml) (I think, bear with me as it's my first time trying to link to a community) seems like a good place to start.
