There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

Hello everyone,

Still trying to get used to the new setup over on Lemmy, however trying to make some new communities work. Want to get /c/ontario and /c/waterloo running with some active discussions and people. Hopefully we can make a difference. :)

Edit: I'd also love to know the hardware that you're running this on!

Hello & welcome!

I'm currently running this on a small VPS at linode, but i've been thinking about switching to a more canadian-based vps that i've used in the past.

lemmy the software has very low system requirements, so it's currently running on a 1 CPU 2 GB RAM vm.

edit: whoops meant to say "low", not "slow"!

Cool, I figured it would need more resources. But I suppose scaling is tomorrows problem. :D
