Some of the planned blackouts will be temporary, others plan to shut their subreddits down indefinitely in protest.

    I’ve been testing lemmy and it’s been working great so far. It only requires some fixes and influx of users.

      I have more posts than I know what to do with. I have subscribed to a lot of communities from a lot of different instances so it’s a lot of activity.

      I recommend everyone to do this and then later turn off some if it becomes too much. But being able to see most of the posts and contribute there will help Lemmy take off. :)

        I’m going to do exactly that right now. Thank you.

          I think it would actually be a better user default to be included in the most popular communities so they see a lot of posts. Otherwise if you subscribe to a instance with not many of their own communities, you will think there is nothing going on.

          I was thinking to write a guide for this. Users need to go to search, pick All instances and then search on something. But that’s not easy to know on day one.

            A ELI5 guide for lemmy is sorely needed. I can now see the amazing potential, but it took me some time to wrap my head around how it works. A simple guide for beginners so they have a start point is much required.
