Welcome to your new online home!

Whether you’ve just joined out of curiosity after the banning of the original r/TheDeprogram or you’ve decided to leave Reddit for good, I’m glad that you’re here and this megathread is for you!

Instead of having multiple comments across different posts, which might make it difficult to see, you can now ask your questions and post your feedback here.

You sure can!

  1. Choose an Instance (For Marxist/Leftist communities, I recommend one of the following 3. Each of these Instance explain their values and moderation policies):

  1. Sign up and personalize your profile

  2. Choose how to browse (You can find a lot of options right here based on your preferences - you can use an app or an alternative front-end)

  3. Find your favorite communities to subscribe to (Instead of subreddits, here we have communities!)

  4. That’s it! You’re ready to interact with other lovely users and engage in the community

If you want to share your opinion after joining Lemmy, seek feedback on the best browsing apps, or discuss anything else, feel free to do so right here!

    This was my attempt at explaining it on Hasan’s subreddit:

    To clarify, The Deprogram’s “community” is hosted at Lemmygrad:

    [email protected]

    This address is the equivalent of a /r/ subreddit link.

    The “instance” is the equivalent of the host/client/app that “reads” it, which would be the equivalent of Reddit here.

    You can use any “instance” you want to subscribe/interact with it as long as it doesn’t block lemmygrad. (Some of the normie instances do because they’re scared of Marxism.)

    Some examples of instances would be Lemmygrad, Hexbear, Lemmy.zip, Mander, etc.

    The largest Hasan community is hosted at lemmy.world

    [email protected]

    As long as your instance doesn’t block lemmy.world, you should be able to subscribe to both. I’d recommend just sticking with one instance, as having multiple accounts/instances kinda defeats the whole purpose.

    If you want to see available instances and communities, I recommend lemmyverse.net.
