Just started Lemmying today. Have lots of questions. Someone mentioned mod logs, so I went down a rabbit hole reading mod logs. The only reason I left reddit was because many mods are dicks. But reading the logs, it seems mods ban people and censor like crazy here too. Isn’t Lemmy supposed to be more free and open? How is this different from Reddit? I honestly don’t understand.
May I suggest…
!newtolemmy@lemmy.ca
I’ve been saying that day 1 new here is very overwhelming. I’ve been suggesting a whole “new to Lemmy” wiki, which explains all the normal questions. Until then, I reccomend this community.
Also…don’t call us Lemmings. Some people do it, and I’m trying to stop them. I prefer fediversians.
The lemming ship is long since sailed. I don’t love it but fediversians may be worse lol
I like “lemmies” but I haven’t seen it used much…if ever…perhaps I made it up.
