๐ to all the newcomers, let me know if you need any help getting settled in!
That's what brought me here! I'll miss RIF, but I think it's time to get used to something new. I appreciate how welcoming everyone seems!
Lemmy is the Future! :D
Same for me. Woke up, launched Sync and got the message that it's not working anymore now and will work with Lemmy later. Immediately created an account here ๐
Fellow Sync refugee here. So sad to see it go. I feel for all the devs that just got shafted. The only good takeaway is that we're here now and hopefully reddit will suffer for it.
Haha, guilty. I went to mindlessly pull up RIF at about 7 pm CT and it wasn't loading comments, then I went oh, right, UTC it's midnight. And now two hours later here I am on lemmy
Same here, I just got back from spending a day at the museum with my nephew, and after getting home I tried loading up RIF. Got the "429" and just sighed before looking up a mobile lemmy app.
Does it already exist on your instance? I think it needs to be lowercase too.
Hi there! What are some good subs for anyone trying to stay away from nsfw?
Yeah there's a checkbox for it under profile settings. There's a ton of great communities, I've subscribed to around 40. Once you get a good set of communities can just set your default to "Subscribed" in profile settings. That will be your front page. You don't really want to use "Local" because it may not be very active. "All" has a lot of stuff in it you may not want to see. There's a few communities where I don't ever want to see their content. See lemmyverse.net for community info. There's a lot of good communities on kbin as well (you can access those from Lemmy and vice versa).
Hello, my first comment here. How do I save images? (Iโm using wefwef app for ios btw)
I just joined today and could use some assistance finding communities that I'd fit into. I'm into Cybersecurity and all matters of computing. If anyone has a suggestion please reply and thanks for having me :)
Nice to have a new place to hang my virtual coat and peer into the endless void of the internet.
Whatever gets you through these trying times!
https://lemmyverse.net/communities This is a good start in search for communities. You can enter your home instance(in your case lemmy.ca) by clicking on the house symbol at the top right and then search for communities like "security".
When you click on one, it'll automatically lead you to the adress based on your home instance and you can immediately subscribe to them form there.
https://lemmy.ca/c/cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works could be of interest for example
Thank you for your warm welcome.
I never used a reddit ap, nor have I moderated, but I've watched the happenings and been incredulous at Huffman's (and subsequently Reddit's) behavior.
Just uninstalled RIF this morning when I opened it up like I always do when I wake up.
It was a good run but dang. Now I'm trying to figure all of this fediverse stuff. The app Jerboa on Android seems to be working pretty well.
What app is most like Bacon Reader? I'm on Connect but feeling a little lukewarm so far
That's your best bet at the moment. Liftoff was another decent option but latest update doesn't see the lemm.ee instance for some reason. Things will get better on the app front in a month or 2 when Boost and Sync go live.
Hey all, giving lemmy a try since RIF is gone
Hi everybody!
