Hello everyone,
So, I learned about Lemmy through one of the subreddits I’m in participating in the blackout. I don’t really ‘get’ how to Lemmy yet but I like it here.
Is there any material for learning how do use Lemmy effectively? There’s a few things I’m not sure 'bout.
I’ve found some… instances(?), think that’s the right term, and would like to join. Do I have to re-create my account/create a new account for each or is there a way to connect my existing account to the new instance?
Is there a way to search for instances of a specific purpose rather than browse a listing of some number of instances?
If i understand correctly-You can subscribe to communities on other instances and that pulls them into your subscriber feed and the “all” feed of anyone else on your instance. but you need to join one to get the full “local” experience of another one. I joined one general instance to curate a subscibe list, and another where I want just that local experience plus I can’t subscribe because admins of my instance block the other.
