I went there in 2009. I was too young to appreciate the culture. Locals were busy selling tourists goods and I wasn’t even sure what to soak in at the square.

I am Australian and have always known it exclusively as the American term “ladybug”. Never heard of ladybird before.

kbin.social, lemmy.ml and lemmy.world are all instances. You can create separate accounts on each one. You can access most information from other instances using just one account in one instance.

I feel as though the user base is a large part of the problem. I might be wrong but the accessibility of social media that have apps is a lot easier for the younger population who these days are flooding social media. I don't think a lot of people use forums or currently Testflight apps such as Memmy (for Lemmy). The iPhone is the phone for influencers and if Lemmy officially releases an iPhone app the same problems may happen.

My understandings on the Fediverse is unclear right now. Will you be able to search for posts just as in stack overflow and reddit right now?

[-] AskThinkingTim@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They are just following the reactionary social media norms these days. The lack of proper passing of information and just humoured by the subreddit protests such as in r/pics. Some people are not actually on Reddit for information.

I’m only just checking the Memmy app on iOS

Ok thanks I'll check that out.

I'm not sure if there is a place to promote your own communities in lemmy.world. I decided to create a thread where you can post and promote your own community.

Mine is focused on watches: https://lemmy.world/c/watches

I can't test Jerboa on iPhone but it makes me realise that maybe I spend too much inefficient time on the phone. It might be different for you.

I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

I subconsciously felt that this "lemmy.world" instance was for those with at least a smidgeon of programming knowledge. Otherwise the name just seems odd.

[-] AskThinkingTim@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's also the second one in recommended servers. Lemmy.ml is nowhere to be seen.

[-] AskThinkingTim@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

The main reason it is growing is because you cannot sign up to Lemmy.ml if you tried right now.

When I subscribe in a community in another instance it always says "pending " in yellow. I can comment but I am not officially subscribed to the community. E.g. subscribing to "!nostupidquestions@lemmy.ml"

Maybe I just need to wait.

Edit: It says "subscribe pending" in yellow

Refer to title.

Assuming all the instances will forever be kept, I would join the smallest one. But you never know...

Does anybody knows how long it takes to sign up for the Lemmy.ml instance with an account? It would give me the green wheel and I don't know if I have to wait "x" amount of time or it's just not possible at this time.
