There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

i should have added it here a while ago!

Another Reddit refugee here. Just signed up and am looking around and figuring it all out.

I see there's a significant number of some of the ~~subreddits~~ communities that I frequented that don't seem to exist here yet. So, naturally, I am motivated to create some of these.

Where and how do I announce to lemmy.ca and to other servers that a new community has been created? Is there a protocol for this, and a community for such announcements?

Welcome! there's a few places you can announce that:

!communitypromo@lemmy.ca is a local one.

there's probably more but apparently my brain isn't working right now.
