Is there an orientation manual for Lemmy? Honestly, Lemmy isn't even the first DDG result for Lemmy (the first result is the Motorhead founder).

What I really want to know is how to pull in forums from other servers because I'm used to a very curated firehouse of content from Reddit and Lemmy so far seems more about making do with what conversation and audience are available. I found a page from 3 years ago describing a somehwat programmery process to do so....

Also, is there a place to find similar reddit subs? My favorite sub on reddit was the subreddit NOT about literally fucking cars but about the importance of micromobility in a car-dominated landscape. Also: cats who look like Ron Perlman.

If you're looking for French, pas de bol, ce n'est pas très courant 🙂

What I meant was, don't sweat it too much. Just use it and you'll figure things out pretty quickly. It's not rocket science.

And yeah, you'll find idiots here too. Like, a lot of idiots. Idiots are everywhere. But they tend to concentrate more on Reddit than on Lemmy, which is why I prefer this place.

    I was glad to learn it's a Canadian server, because I was worried if it was in France I'd be absolutely screwed by the time zone difference....

    But they might want to update their whole "Bilingual" community in the tag, because it's all in English.

    I'm a self-aware idiot, so I appreciate communities that don't allow mef to indulge my basal ganglia.
