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)

It's been good! I have to say my favorite element has been figuring out different ways that I can blend my Lemmy interactions with my Mastodon use.

I'd love to hear more about what you've learned.

I can search on Mastodon for the URL of a Lemmy post or comment to reply from Mastodon.

I can follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon and it will boost all posts and comments into my feed there.

I can follow individual Lemmy users and see their posts on Mastodon.

I was able to point https://relay.fedi.buzz at Beehaw.org to generate a relay URL for it, so now all Beehaw.org posts hit my instance's federated feed. This one really surprised me.

Whoa, thanks for sharing!

@jnovinger
Oh also I can make a post on Mastodon and if I include the @ for a Lemmy community it will post there too. For example: https://lemmy.ml/post/1168798
