Use the ‘scaled’ sort for your frontpage. Helps keep the smaller communities you sub to from getting totally drowned out by some of the larger ones.
Find communities you want to see on here and subscribe to them. If you just go through home feed then it’s mainly politics and tech news.
Stay true to your heart.
Don’t give Loch Ness monster 3.50.
What do you want from us, monster?!
Ignore people who start screaming insults about instances which are not their own.
Nah you’re doing fine
If you use it in the web version, I have LULs, a script which makes all Lemmy links that point to a different instance which you encounter while browsing, to point to your instance.
oo nice!
Have fun - and invite your friends and relatives and colleagues 😎
Have fun and try to engage. Download an app for your phone. There are multiple per os so try them all and choose what suits you best

I use voyager app, unsure about other apps or website, but check if your able to easily block users. Instances and communities, I usually scroll through the all free and block things I just can’t stand and are heavily just annoying, also has a ability to filter out keyword. Makes my browsing less depressing.
Just use it as you would reddit or any other social media platform. Welcome.
Read a community’s rules before posting or commenting. Take this community, for instance:
- Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
Each Lemmy instance also has its own site-wide rules.
Why does this rule exist?
Since there are other communities more fit for these kinds of questions
Because other more specific communities exist for that.
