I'm here from reddit, and thank you for these recommendations. Time for my neuroplasticity to kick in so I can learn how all this works.

Ya'll gonna have to nerd out with me now. 😎

I think the reddit hug of love is affecting things today on the 12th.

Just a general question, on a mobile device is using your browser or an app the better experience? And if using an app is Jaebra the one most people use?

I've also found this post to be really helpful:

The growing list of subreddits going to be dark, but these are Lemmy or /kbin equivalents

Work Reform & Unionizing! - [email protected]

Just wanted to say, thanks for hosting this instance! I'm a reddit refuge and this Lemmy instance has been really straightforward on how to get started.

We're open for all!~

Theres some sciencey ones on Mander.xyz :

Mander has a list that is really long of many different disiplines so I just grabbed the ones that I thought would of intrest

A version of r/nostupidquestions: [email protected]

Thanks for the great list and comments! Has anyone found communities for any of these?:

• onebag
• barefoot(running)shoes
• bodyweightfitness/calisthenics
• degoogle
• minimalism
• lifehacks
• gtd(Getting things done)

Join us for all your sports talk over at https://fanaticus.social! We've got communities for all the major sports and their teams.

I also spent the past week forking the popular game day bot, redball, in order to bring game bots to lemmy! There are still a couple of kinks I'm working out but I've begun rolling them out to the teams' communities, starting with the baseball communities.

And all the teams-specific communities!

Should this be edited to remove Beehaw now that they have de-federated?

Avoid beehaw

Glad I figured out how to log in. Can’t wait to join the fun!

Time to wait for the cat ones

For all things Futurama https://lemmy.world/c/futurama

I appreciate you taking the time to share! I’ve only messed with Mastodon briefly and the fediverse is a little challenging to navigate at first (in my opinion).

I’ve been a lurker on the subreddit for ages and when I saw your post I decided it was time to check Lemmy out. Thanks for taking the time to set up an instance to keeps the community alive as Reddit implodes. Hopefully this works out or at least can act as a temporary home until we can figure out what is next.

Does anyone know of any communities for pigeons or capybaras (or tbh any other weird-but-cute critters)?

Edit: adding some as I find them:

• https://lemmy.world/c/opossums
• https://possumpat.io/c/possums

Does anyone know if you can hide posts in Jerboa? This post and a lemmy.one welcome post are pinned at the top of my feeds, and they take up a lot of room visually. I'd also like to hide posts I've already seen, as on smaller communities I only want to see the occasional new posts, not see the same post from 3 days ago every time.

Hi! Does anyone know any good communities about the following topics:

-longboarding

-possum pictures and/or possum memes

Thanks to this list, I saved a minute.

https://lemmy.world/c/skywind

Skywind is officially on lemmy. They are Skyrim mod group that is doing a full conversion mod of Morrowind.

Any communities for capitalism? Yes, I am a capitalist, dont murder me please

For those who missed /r/gamedeals and /r/buildapcsales while browsing lemmy

• https://lemmit.online/c/buildapcsales
• https://lemmit.online/c/gamedeals

It pulls in posts from the reddit subs.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a videos community?

Much appreciated! Hopefully this really takes off.

I'm late to getting games so I was very happy to find https://sh.itjust.works/c/patientgamers with how patientgamers was one my favorite communities back on reddit.

I've setup an instance focused on some niche topics and hobbies, there's not much there yet but here they are if anyone wants!

FFXIV → https://possumpat.io/c/ffxiv

Bugs → https://possumpat.io/c/bugmenagerie

Esports → https://possumpat.io/c/esports

Gundam → https://possumpat.io/c/gundam

Star Trek → https://possumpat.io/c/startrek

I was going down the universal search tool list, subscribing to the communities that I was interested in, and I ran into an issue trying to sub to some of the communities. Thankfully I was able to quickly find the answer - anything that is on the block list under https://lemmy.one/instances you are not able to subscribe to from this instance.

Thank you for this. It's a nice starting point.

I am using the Jerboa app for Lemmy, and I am able to subscribe to communities via the search tab. How do I then view posts from my subscribed communities within the Jerboa app? Anyone know?

Not sure if I am using the app right...

Edit: looks like updating the app fixed it. Subscriptions now showing up in the left menu.

If anyone else is missing Breaddit as much as I, [!bread] ([email protected]) (I think, bear with me as it's my first time trying to link to a community) seems like a good place to start.

Is this link better? https://lemmy.ml/c/bread
