New and lost

Hello people!

Reddit has been my main (and often only) social media site for years. Due to third party apps getting slaughtered, and the official app being a bag of pus, and reddit admins making bad decision after bad decision, I saw Lemmy mentioned as an alternative and thought I'd try it out. So far I can't make sense of the settings, how to search for things etc, but I'm sure that will come with time. I hope so, anyway!

welcome! I’m in the same boat, and agree about it feeling hard to search for communities.

One tip is to check https://browse.feddit.de/ for a list of popular communities to join
