To Newbies, I just want to say:
If you aren't a Marxist-Leninist, you might wanna stay away from the big 3 Marxist-Leninist (aka: Tankie) instances [lemmygrad.ml, hexbear.net, lemmy.ml]
Memes about the Fediverse

How could I forget my Tankie Triad warning LMAO
Agreed, also if you're not a Neoliberal I would stay away from World (or if you're Queer, a minority, or someone who isnt comfortable with seeing bigotry).
!yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com for people interested (now I'm not sure that's something we should show to new joiners ha ha)
Oh don't insult marxists leninists like that. I guess what you really mean is that those instances are for russia/china simps or nationalists. There's nothing marxist about their views.
Wanted to say this too. It's Lemmy's biggest problem and keeps putting me off. I don't recommend Lemmy to people in person anymore because of them. I don't know if I would be more disturbed if they're mostly state actors astroturfing or just deeply unwell real people
For new people
I'm out of the loop. What's this "Reddit thread from earlier today"?
Also, yes, welcome to former Reddit users. I'm also a former Redditor, but I left during the API pricing fiasco.
A thread on r/technology about Decentralized Social Media actually got some good traction so a few of us logged back in to promote Lemmy a bit lol
This post is currently at the top of r/AskReddit, the following comment is currently at the top:
My honest opinion is I’d like to see the internet become decentralized again and less monetized.
This new hyper-monetized internet sucks so hard and places like X, YouTube, and Reddit are the issue.
Link - there's already some suggestions of Lemmy, but it would be good to keep adding more!
Thanks for that. One of the comments at the top mentions the Web Revival. Great concept, of which we are playing our part. Might consider a community for that...
I deleted my Reddit account months ago :3
I still have it to promote Lemmy
what did the greedy little pigboy do this time?
An article titled "Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative to the Tech Oligarchy" hit the front page of r/technology and the top comment mentioned lemmy as a reddit alternative. Although the comment was removed when the OP later edited it to include a direct link to join-lemmy.org. Which probably indicates those mods have automod configured to automatically remove links to that site. But the good news is, it still got a lot of attention. It'll be interesting to see if any instance admins will be able to verify an uptick in account registrations over the next few days.
Nothing actually (for once (I'm sure el Spez's hard right turn announcement will come soon though))

Hey newbies! Confused about how it all works? Don't worry, you'll get used to the confusion. Also, check out !creepywikipedia@lemmy.world for a good niche community.
