To all the new(er) Reddit refugees!

Reply in thread

I am too. I downloaded an app (Jerboa) made an account, and then just started searching for some of the interest subreddits I used and subscribed to them. Found an aww, tech, movie and tv shows, reddit migration, gunpla, and others so I can customize my "front page".

I took the learn by doing approach. I didn't really look at any tutorials or how to guides, just started with the app messed around. Did some searches for hobbies and interest. Linked an account and then started subscribing. I think I got the jist, but still can't see the full scope and picture of how it works but not bad for day 1 I think. Good luck on your journey!!

[Facebook federation megathread] Downvote this post if you want lemm.ee to federate with Threads. (Updated)

I read this post and have been pondering this question for a good chunk of the day. I had a thought that may or may not have any impact. I hope I can convey this correctly.

Say Lemme.ee defederates fromThreads. But we are federated to Lemmy.world. Because we are federated with them, and they are federated with Threads, is there going to be some...Threads posts leaking though to our all. Or does the all feed only extend one..."hop"?

My brain keeps going to something akin to six degrees of Kevin Bacon. I know it's not the same, but wasn't sure how the fediverse handles the "all feed". One hop.. two hop....etc.

Thanks for any insights from people who actually know how this works.

Unable to login with verified password

I had this situation happen to me. For me at least it had to do with my email address for login. When I createdy lemm.ee account I used all lowercase in my email address. Then when I went to login in from Jerboa I had the first letter capitalized and was getting invalid login. Went all lowercase and fixed my issue and was able to login.

I hope this gives you something to try. I'm brand new so I've been just blindly trying to figure this out lol. Good luck!

I see, thanks for the explanation and reply. I don't think there's an easy/simple way around based on the current knowledge. I can't say I am a fan of Threads dominating the feed. But at the same time, I don't think we should become an island unto ourselves to avoid them. (IE doomsday scenario)

But thanks again for the reply and for keeping us informed about what's happening. Keep up the great work!
