Cat pic unrelated but ain’t she beautiful?
Edit : I’d understand if this post is deleted since it’s not strictly about lemmy.world, but I really didn’t know where to post it!
I wanted to quit reddit since a long time, it feels like the best time to do it
She looks soo happy btw. House isn’t a house without a happy cat haha
I don’t mind taking the time to become acclimated. Had I known about the existence of lemmy (fediverse?) I would have left reddit sooner.

Its not the best guide, and I plan on cleaning it up more, and adding more content-

Has a few tips to get you started.
I’m still confused by the Fediverse stuff. I can’t grasp how to subscribe to lemmy in kbin and vice versa. But I’m here to stay.
This post was very helpful for that: https://lemmy.world/post/266744 The same person has 2 other chapters that were very helpful for me. Check them out!
lemmy.ml seems to have built a reputation too, which is interesting. I never had any poor interactions (yet) with any moderation across the fediverse, but it’s interesting to see the effects of moderation style impacting instances.
It’s interesting, because moderation here is public: you can check the modlog at the bottom of the page to see what was removed. Transparency is awesome, plus you get to see what mods have to deal with every day.
This does so much more to keep people honest too. If anything, it should build consensus. “Here’s the really fucked up thing John Doe said” and rational people would see it and go “yeah, damn, good move” instead of the chamber of hidden secrets system Reddit had.
Asshole mods can get called out while shitty users are way more obvious.
