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!

Glad to be here. I am still trying to comprehend how all these different servers/instances work but lemmy should hopefully be more resilient from a takeover a la twitter (never had a twitter account fortunately) or an implosion from above a la reddit.

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do I interact with all the other servers/instance (for example beehaw.org or lemmy.ml, etc.) do i use the same login and password as the lemmy.ca?

your lemmy.ca credential only work lemmy.ca instance, but if you select posts from "all" you gonna see posts from lemmy.ml, beehaw.org,etc and you can comment and upvote just fine

(in mastodon you can migrate accounts between instances but this is a feature in development here)
