ELI5 Reddit to Lemmy
(sh.itjust.works)
Hey! I’m an apollo user and quit reddit for life after the you know what. I don’t fully understand this platform quite yet either — but web apps like wefwef.app have made the transition easier for me. I created an account on an instance called lemmy.world (<- that is a full URL that you can copy and paste and join from on a browser) and searched for “subfeddits” using the wefwef.app search function.
i also found a few communities using : https://browse.feddit.de/
all this to say that i’m right there with you and i hope that this helps. There are more ways to find communities and I’m sure others will help you as well!
Thank you so much for the breakdown. I’m gonna reference back to this a lot while i try to wrap my head around this new space. I’m grateful for everyone’s informative replies and your guys’ good-spirited attitude towards reddit transplants like myself.
I was a long time reddit lurker but I feel compelled to post and it’s responses like yours that made me feel comfortable doing so.
TLDR: Thank you so much to everyone who broke it down for me. I’m having lots of fun in this space because of y’all and I am so excited to continue contributing to it.
