I wrote a guide to help users with their migration to Lemmy

    Some quick links that might be helpful:

    • https://browse.feddit.de/ (to find communities on Lemmy)
    • https://kbin.social/magazines (to find communities on Kbin)
    • https://sub.rehab (to see where subreddits officially/unofficially moved to)

    I’m also working on a browser extension to make subscribing easier:

    • Post with context: https://lemmy.ca/post/778315
    • Direct link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/lemmy-instance-assistant/

    @[email protected] is it possible to pin a comment? Else @[email protected] feel free to copy these into your post

    This is great! I’ve been having all kinds of trouble finding communities in jerboa. The url method worked and found lots of stuff I couldn’t find in the app
