I was using Instagram and threads mostly but was wanting to stop using Meta based apps. Someone posted about the fediverse so I started using mastodon and Pixelfed.
This is supposed to be a Reddit replacement is what some people said but I didn’t really use that before
No, ran out last week
How do you become an official shitizen?
Welcome to the party!! Have a kitty pic!
Welcome!
Welcome to lemmy :3
A few tips:
- If you're coming from Reddit know karma here isn't a thing and nobody really cares how many likes you get
- If you want a great mobile client I reccomend Thunder
- You will see a lot of Linux users and Queer people (with overlap), also expect to see a lot of :3
- Unless you set up filters in the settings except to see a lot of political content
- If you want some memes I reccomend [email protected] and [email protected]
- If you just want to post cat pictures feel free :3
What does NSFW stand for? Nudes Sex Fun Wanking? Is switching on cause explicit content to show up or block it?
Not Safe For Work, mostly nudity, sometimes violence.
I don't know where you are doing the switching on or off part.
I do this over my app (Boost), where I have to turn it on (show NSFW content) to see it.
NSFW also includes spoilers for now, as Lemmy devs don't care about spoilers. (They will come with post tags sometime in the future.) (This is similar to mastodon but they named it "content warning")
I downloaded the Lemmy Voyager app for iOS and there is a toggle switch for this item.
The term “not safe for work” reminds me of an episode of “I think you should leave” on Netflix
Just like Reddit, depending on the instance you join Lemmy allows for pornographic & gore content to be posted.
I would suggest logging into your instance, in this case for you it’s https://sh.itjust.works/, and navigate to your profile to turn NSFW content off.
Great, thanks for the help
Welcome! We're all pretty friendly around these parts, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
Welcome to Lemmy! Have fun and be active, everyone appreciates it.
Welcome in from the cold. We have hot cocoa and blankets.
You got any beans?
Welcome! Good to have you here
Hi New on Lemmy I'm dad!
Hey Dave, I like how our little niche communities are all connected to each other, it's like a prairie dog town. You can pop your head up anywhere and meet other little dogs! Glad you popped up here! IMHO, this instance is the most welcoming, when you're new to an interest group/niche, shitizens reach out and explain how federation works, lore, etc. Big hearts.
