Hi 🙋,

you might be in search for an reddit alternative and don’t get the Lemmy thing, yet. Lemme help you out, shortly.

Lemmy lets you build communities just like you are used to.
You need an account to participate. I doesn’t matter on which server you register.
1. https://feddit.org/ → German/English community
2. https://feddit.uk/ → UK centric
3. List of other servers
Lemmy servers (instances) host communities and can be interconnected.
1. @[email protected] can follow local or remote communities
  - [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])
  - [[email protected]](/c/[email protected])
  - identified almost as easy as an e-Mail address.
Following a community is called subscribing, you’ll find a subscribe button when browsing communities.
Subscribing will keep you noted on new posts.
Mobile clients can make the experience more fluffy

Our community is called [email protected] but there are several likeminded communities out there. Make sure to watch out for them, e.g. by browsing an instance's local communities. Also if you want to stick around we posted about What to expect (from this community) and Where to start (buying european).

Feel free to link this post, when onboarding people to this community.

Sorry, what? I was busy with keeping [email protected] active, and keeping an eye on /r/RedditAlternatives to help people join Lemmy.

I was just having a look at the modlog and saw your account, didn't check the domain name. That was it, there's not that much more to read about it.

I get that it's not your role to look up accounts to see if they are me or not. But did you not get my DM from several weeks ago telling you that I was starting to notice a lot of fake accounts of me? It was before they started spouting more and more Nazi stuff in an effort to piss people off.

The reason I alerted you, is because you do mostly stay neutral and just report Lemmy goings on. And since my name is um, controversial, I figured you should know.

And as your comment demonstrates, you do mention me when controversial topics come up.

So you did NOT get my DM about my noting that there were bunch of fakes starting to happen using my username on other instances? I just wanna make sure we are on the same page.

I'm not accusing you of anything. I have just never known a DM not to go through.

That's my current notification count

As you can guess, I don't check DMs that often. What you say could also just be a tactic to not assume your alts and pretend they are owned by other people. I don't know, and I don't really care at the moment to be honest

Fair enough. But maybe you can stop talking about me since you don't know all the facts. You don't have to of course, so you do you.
