Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

    Go to the communities page on here and it will bring up a list of communities. Select the ‘all’ tab and it will bring up all the communities hosted on here and on other instances that are linked with beehaw. So you may see a ‘Technology’ community and a ‘Technology@lemmy.ml’ community. The first one is the technology community hosted here on beehaw, and the second one is the technology community hosted on lemmy.ml.

    Now beehaw users can’t make instances (as decided by the beehaw admins), but there are instances you can create your own communities. So you will definitely run across some more niche ones from those external instances in that communities page that you can access and subscribe/post to
