Alright I'm gonna need you to buy an older ThinkPad and then install Arch Linux on it. Then I need you to set some anime background, preferably uncomfortable close to hentai if possible. Then I'm going to need you to get some thigh high socks and put those on. Put your legs up on the desk and take a picture. Make sure something like neofetch is running, so people know you use Arch BTW.
Once you have done that, head on over to /c/unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone and make a post.
If you could do that, that would be great
-
What did you use before and how did you find Lemmy?
-
I was about to go have a nap, as it's waaaay too early for me on a Saturday, but I just wanted to wish you welcome, and I hope you enjoy your stay.
PS: The community you're posting this on may not be the correct place for this, as it's more oriented towards things regarding the sh.itjust.works instance, but I don't think it matters too much.

Ya I wasn’t sure which one to pick, this server said it was solar powered I think so I thought that was cool. It popped up with a list of a few to pick from. I’m on Vancouver Island and am exploring the Fediverse apps. I’m enjoying Pixelfed so far.
-
solar powered
Hydroelectric, I believe.

Welcome!
Feel free to post on !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca if you have any questions, else there are lots of guides around for you to use. There are a few pinned to the sidebar of your instance, and there's also this post from over on

Cool thanks, I’ll check it out. I can learn new things

Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
-
Is subscribing how you “follow” a certain community or person. I’ve been bouncing around to multiple apps so just checking how things work.
Thanks for the warm welcome
-
Yes, that's it indeed!
Happy to help!

Hi New on Lemmy I'm dad!
-
Welcome! I came here from reddit about a year and a half ago and never looked back. I hope you find Lemmy flexible and real and we meet your needs. :)
-
The only thing I miss about reddit are the large, academic subject specific subs, that tightly moderate their subs to make sure that as many of the posts/answers are from accredited people, or that the post seems to check out when they look the subject up. r/askhistorians for example.
-
We are working on it, maybe it's not that big yet, but we also aren't invaded by ads, bots, and censorship in the same way reddit is.
-
Yeah it's weird that the smartest communities are too dumb to leave reddit
-
Well but also I miss like r/gme_meltdown too. And the sportsball stuff but I know most don't care about that around here

Welcome in from the cold. We have hot cocoa and blankets.

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.

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 !memes@lemmy.world and !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone
- 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?
-
Hello! Glad you're enjoying it, always happy to see new people around.
-
Hello and welcome to Lemmy.
-
Hello there!
-
"General Kenobi! You are a bold one."
-
-
Yay Dave! Welcome :-)
-
Welcome! Good to have you here
-
You got any beans?
-
Welcome to Lemmy! Have fun and be active, everyone appreciates it.
-
Welcome! We're all pretty friendly around these parts, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
-
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
-
Welcome!
-
Welcome!
-

How do you become an official shitizen?
