Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]

I've been lurking for over a year and I finally made an account 🎉

Now that I can customize the communities I see I'm wondering, what communities are you part of/do you recommend?

Instead of joining communities, I browse all and block communities I don't like. That way I am always aware of new or newly federated communities.

good idea! I've already started blocking the german meme communities because I don't speak german

Lemmy has a languages setting that might be helpful here, but I never bothered to check what it actually does. Er, sorry. Just, it could be worth looking into.

Blocking certain country focused instances can help, too.

By default you see everything.

If you start to select languages (Ctrl+Click on desktop, not sure about mobile), you won't see non-selected languages anymore.

Be careful to keep Undetermined as most of the content isn't tagged.

Yeah...

I changed the language and I thought I was shadow banned for a couple of weeks...

Not intuitive at all.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Indeed, definitely some improvement to be made there

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I'm blocking you because it's annoying when people censor words...like PORN

Welcome!

On my side

A bit more specific

There is a weekly thread on [email protected] that you can have a look at for some ideas.

You can also use https://lemmyverse.net/communities for suggestions, and set up your home instance using the house button so that they open there directly.

amazing! thank you so much!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

You are welcome!

Just found another one I forgot: [email protected]

For big communities there is no need, they will surface to all.

If you have some interests with specific community on lemmy give it a follow. There are lot of them with little traffic ~1 post/week, like [email protected] it is not dead just fewer posts compared to reddit.
