Proudly burdening sh.itjust.works instead of lemmy.ml!

It's at the top of the list on join-lemmy.org's popular server list, next to lemmy.world and beehaw.org, of course new users will sign up on the more popular ones. Plus, a few posts on reddit called out these three which set everything in motion.

Once folks start to understand how it works, they might start to sign up on other ones, for a "cooler handle" for their user, or register a domain and start their own instance like I did.

Anyway, welcome aboard, right?

Well, hello from feddit.de! Since I'm a german user I thought it'd be only logical to register on a german instance. While new registrations are semi-locked, the criteria for being let in are quite easy to pass and they are mostly in place to filter out spam. Got my account approved right on the next day

That looks like a missed opportunity to me not using fedd.it :-)

I just hope it lasts, worst thing would be if people just went back to reddit

I created my account at sh.itjust.works but I don't fully understand Lemmy yet. Finding communities seems confusing.

[–] monobot@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago (3 children)

You have basic serach here: https://browse.feddit.de/ they index all communities on known instances.

I tried to start a kbin instance today and I literally ended up corrupting or deleting debian off the VPS.

So look I'm tryin' but uh...give me a little time.

I'm so sorry, I haven't seen the pinned post before registering. Maybe add notice to registration page?
