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/

    Fifteen-year veteran of reddit checking in. So glad to be a part of this societal shift, and excited to see where we go from here!

    If anyone else is missing an old-reddit/digg style UI on the desktop, I’ve published Rediggit for Lemmy. It’s very much a work-in-progress, but it should scratch that immediate itch for more legroom. Currently for light theme only, but more coming (and feel free to hack away and shape my mess into something even better).

      nice work! if I have some free time I may work this into a custom theme (with your approval, of course).

        By all means! Mine itself is based off DarkFox’s Old reddit-ish Lemmy. I hope to do a full rewrite in the coming weeks, to incorporate dark mode and make it all more robust, but wanted to share for any other ex-redditors looking for a hotfix.
