Reddit has subreddits. What does Lemmy go with?...

I mean what comes after the @. I'm tired of seeing a bunch of lame porn from @lemmynsfw

Let it all out. Be a storm

It can be a movie, a scientific discovery, food, whatever

What is the purpose of voting up or down on? I'm not clear what voting is suposed to achieve?...

If I just had high caffeine tolerance I’d guess it’s either because of fast caffeine metabolism or my ADHD. Sometimes a regular cup of coffee is more than enough to wake me up and improve my ability to concentrate and sometimes not even a 4x Espresso is enough, with no discernible reason why. I have tried drinking coffee on...

Right now it defaults to "Local Posts" when loading Lemmy web page, is it somehow possible to set it to by default show "Subscribed Posts"?

Is there anything you’d like to talk about or share but haven’t found a place to do so? What communities (or “subreddits” for all Reddit refugees) would you like to see?...

Just a random thought experiment. Let's say I have my account on a lemmy instance: userA@mylemmy.com. One day I decide to stop paying for the domain and move to userA@mynewlemmy.com, and someone else gains it and also starts up a lemmy instance....

I may have ask this before but im not too sure....

Been watching over the recent surge in fediverse users for about a week now. Last week, it was climbing what i would call naturally, organically. Now for the last couple days, its been like 350k in the last 2 days....

I myself am really on the fence about this....

There are instance-independent links to communities, for example: FindAKbin@kbin.social....

Personally, I want nothing to do with them and I'm not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. I moved to the Fediverse to get away from all these corpos.

This presumes humanity is a space fairing or interplanetary civilization....

Does anybody know how to logg in into jerboa app with lemmy.fmhy.ml? I am new to lemmy. I can't find this specific instance on there or i just i don't know how to do this

In my case I always like listening to "A whiter shade of pale", it always works.

Suppose I wanted to make a ncurses client for Lemmy. Is there an api to interect with communities/posts/voting etc?

Like, a horror movie that instead of scare you makes you laugh more than a comedy....

If software on the fediverse such as lemmy and kbin are connected similar to emails, how come I cannot use kbin with my lemmy account and have to create a new one for kbin specifically? Is this just a bug, or have I misunderstood how the fediverse works?

Hey all. One of the best features of 3rd party reddit apps was hiding the post once you viewed or scrolled past so that you wouldn't see the same post each time you open the app/site. I believe this one done via the hide post feature via 3rd party apps. Does Lemmy support anything like this? Thanks!

Can be food, tools, music, whatever comes to mind

One annoying thing I noticed on Lemmy is that is someone mentions a Community and links to it, that link usually just opens up the “home” instance of that community. While I actually wanted to see it on my instance so I can join it an participate. What is the proper way to do it? Or is there some browser plugin that makes...

I’m a moderator of a smaller community. I’m posting quality content multiple times a day, and I posted about it in New Communities. The number of subscribers is low but it’s growing steadily....
