Where am I? Is this the Fediverse? What is the Mastodon? How do I Firefish? Am I Pixelfed? Do I Lemmy?

Hi there👋 What I've learnt in a year so far about #Fediverse. Condensed to help others.

1st understanding.
We make friends across multiple Fedi platforms at once.

Imagine if instagram, tiktok, facebook, twitter, youtube all connected & run by users to help users, not wall us apart & annoy us, for ad profits.

Archive your Reddit data before it’s too late - for #Reddit users concerned with the new #redditapi changes and the #redditmigration that is underway, AND you feel comfortable with the command line, here’s some code for retrieving and archiving your posts and comments. https://xavd.id/blog/post/archive-your-reddit-data/

⚠️ PSA: Before anyone jumps ship to Lemmy from Reddit, read this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/143o5xd/reconsidering_my_support_for_lemmy/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb

If you still want to join Lemmy (join-lemmy.org) (seems as welcoming as Mastodon has been!), avoid lemmy.ml and lemmygrad as they are official servers ran by the developers. Lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone seem pretty good!

Alternatively, you could also join Kbin, (kbin.pub) as it can still interact with Lemmy based communities! (Although they call communities magazines and follow the !name format instead of @name)

Has any joined a Lemmy instance recently? I looked through a few, tried to join and just couldn't get the sign up page to work on any of them. Fill out the form, click submit and the form goes nowhere.
