Hello everyone. I hope all of you are having a great day!
As you all know, we are expecting a relatively big number of new users from Reddit soon. That means this community will also likely be flooded with new users.
Let’s get together to decide on what should our welcome post(s) look like. You are also encouraged to give us all the guides you can find so we can link to them. Let’s turn this into a place for support and growth, rather than hatred and drama!
Let us know if you think our rules and general approach in this community need any improvements. Feel free to provide feedback on anything you’d like for this community. As an user, you are what makes this community an actual community, and so your input matters more than anything else.
Thank you, and take care!
With Love,
!reddit Mod Team
Teaching new users how to find, subscribe and be able to post to communities that aren’t on their own instances is the biggest hurdle in the Fediverse I’ve come across so far. To find this community for example, all they have to do is put “[email protected]” in the search box while logged in on their instance and they’ll find it and be able to subscribe. Also getting the idea across that they don’t have to have an account on the instance where their favorite community is in order to subscribe and post there.
Aside from that, maybe a list of communities in the Fediverse that closely match popular subs on Reddit eg: /r/all, /r/worldnews, /r/videogames, etc.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I seem to remember searching for communities from kbin doesn’t work if you use the exclamation point.
Correct.
