I have been trying to upping my game from Liking to Commenting. Still didn't have Idea to post though, lol...

It will come naturally after api change is done. Yesterday we had a chance to testdrive new user influx before the bigger wave after 3rd party apps are cut. Let's see how many users are going to endure reddit's native app.

Even bad content is still content and gets more engagement than nothing.

Just joined today but currently loving the default browser layout, will see what communities are available and start making content.

Easier said than done. Every time I try to post something it just hangs.

Don't tell me what to do! Heheheheh

I'm just chilling and getting comfy. then I'll start contributing after I feel out the vibe here.

Okay, I'll try my best.

I was looking for a reddit alternative that was similar to how mastodon works and found lemmy. I don't like mastodon very much, but I thought the mastodon concept works much better when you have smaller communities decentralized over multiple instances. Kind of like all those bb-forums back in the day, but through a single interface/client.

So naturally, I do like Lemmy but it still kind of has the same problems I have with Mastodon. I want to go into detail in a full post at a later time, but in general it comes down to the user experience not being great. I have quite a lot of ideas for improvements

First I need to understand how all this works. fedia, lemmy, mastadon, fediverse, etc. I don't really understand what it all is and how it works. Suggestions from one user to another from a different "place" don't translate. Someone told me to look at /all. Like, where is that? I don't see anything like that. It's all a confusing, jumbled mess. It's melting my brain and I don't know if I can stick around. I don't see any kind of notifications either, so if someone responds to me, I probably won't see it unless I remember where I posted and to go manually check.

I'll probably get around to making some of the communities that I miss. I don't know that I have time to moderate, so it's still up in the air.

Where can I start my own community? There's some things I want but I dont wnat to host my own instance.

I'm here. I last commented on Reddit many moons ago but I'm here

100%. No one is here from my niche interest so I made a community and I'm going to post in it every day.

@GatoB I'm trying to make the best effort I can, I started a London community and been making content for it and cross posting whatever I come across that could work there. So far I gotten around roughly 50 subscribers and some engagement in my posts. I'm reaching out for engagement so if you want to join in and make this something I'd really appreciate it.

... Or if you want to lurk I'm good with that too, I'd appreciate the eyes more then anything at this point.

I hope someone makes a standard issue cat community.
