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

      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.
