Reddit refugee here - stumbled across Lemmy as it was mentioned in a comment on Artifact but intrigued by this format and communities!

Looking for tips as a brand new user to get the most out of it - any advice is welcome! I’m using Mlem which seems to be working pretty well so far.

Thanks! So I signed up to an instance and I can then filter by all and the option to ‘subscribe’ to lots of other sub-lemmys is available - still not really sure how it all works but definitely getting served a lot of activity!

If you know of a community and you can’t find it in all, paste the whole URL in the search field ( https://lemmy.ml/c/linux ) and then you can subscribe.

This indicates your instance there’s someone interested in this community and it’ll start getting future content

Only the first user would need to do this, for those after, the community will show when searching in all

Edit: autocorrect
