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.
-
ELI5 What is Lemmy? What is Lemmygrad? What’s the difference?
-
Can I get a TLDR?
You sure can!
- Choose an Instance (For Marxist/Leftist communities, I recommend one of the following 3. Each of these Instance explain their values and moderation policies):
-
Sign up and personalize your profile
-
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)
-
Find your favorite communities to subscribe to (Instead of subreddits, here we have communities!)
-
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!
Allright, sweet. I was worried I signed up to the wrong one since it’s not the ML instance, but I guess this will do for now.
I will say though that there is a small chance if Lemmy politics shift that .zip and Lemmygrad could defederate. In the past, the admin who runs .zip has allowed the users to vote on those sorts of issues (for example, we preemptively blocked Threads.com). But you can always make another account if you get sick of the libs later
