๐ to all the newcomers, let me know if you need any help getting settled in!
I straight up donโt know how to use Lemmy. I feel like I need to relearn how to ride a bike.
Iโve been here for a bit more than a week now and my biggest advice and is to take it as it is. Take a deep breath, accept that this is Lemmy and not something else, and that youโre feeling it out. This is not relearning a bike, this is getting in a peddle boat for the first time. Similar, yes, but also itโs own thing.
Yeah itโs different, youโll burn in pretty quick though, just have to get used stuff being spread across a bunch of instances. It feels pretty natural after using it a while. The designers try to make it easy. Itโs kind of like email where each community has two parts to its name.
ok, so i have been here for like a whole hour now so iโm a pro! Jk I still donโt get a lot of it but I did find this cool map that shows you large communities! https://lemmymap.feddit.de/
