I know people are confused about how fediverse works and how to use it. This is an attempt to compile a list of beginner's guides made by some amazing people on this topic.

Unsunny's Guide - An easy to read guide aimed at redditors migrating to Lemmy or Kbin

Lemmy.world Starting Guide - A beginner's guide to Lemmy by the admin of lemmy.world instance.

db0's New User Guide - A guide for new users on Lemmy made by head mod of r/piracy.

Michael Altfield's Guide - A guide on finding Lemmy Communities (Lemmy version of Subreddits)

r/KbinMigration's Guide - Redditor's guide to how Kbin works

I will update this list if any new guide is made so you can save this post for later. Also, if anyone has any good guide to add post it in the comments and I'll add it here.
