I'm noticing an influx of Reddit users today, maybe revolving around their weird bug they had today. I know this question pops up semi regularly, but for those just getting their foot in the door maybe we can help show them what else is out here on the Fediverse to help them get started.
I'll kick us off, to any newcomers, I help run the following communities, and we'd welcome you to any of them. (Shameless self promotion I know, but I hope more people join in sharing theirs as well)
-
!satisfactory@lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/c/satisfactory)
- A community based around the factory building game, Satisfactory
-

For new users, I hope you find some communities that you enjoy! For current users, share your favorite communities that new folks may be interested in! (Please use both the !@_ notation and give a link, to help our new fediverse people out in learning how it works)

It's always nice to see some jokes stick around, I hope when I die this is still a joke. (No sarcasm either, I truly love it and how much it annoys some people)

Copy-pasting my usual response to these threads:
I'm legally obliged to shill the various crafting communities, my two most used are !knitting@lemmy.world and !lemmy_stitch@sh.itjust.works but you can find lots more in the sticky thread in either of those.
Then there's also !imadethis@lemm.ee which has been a bit quiet lately so if you've made something, go show it off!

Not until now.
As an ipad user I wouldn't have anything to offer in terms of keyboards, sadly.
Guess I should've mentioned the guy who waltzed in and had a severe case of main character syndrome, would be a great story to share in your community
You (or anyone else) can share it there if you'd like.
As the current main mod there, I feel there'd be unwanted implications to myself doing any sharing, which is why I only posted the first post about the community itself.
I'm going to shamelessly plug the community I just made for Ambigrams.
To mods here at !asklemmy, I know this is on the edge of rule 3 and 4, I'm seeing a lot of newbie questions though and was hoping this could head off a thousand new posts of users asking what and how to use lemmy. Actually, I'm going to add some of that to the post.
I started a fantasy basketball community here for anyone interested. I try to share helpful articles I find and plan to do more if it grows.
!fantasy_basketball@lemmy.mlFor books and reading related: !fiction@literature.cafe !books@lemmy.ml !classics@literature.cafe !literature@beehaw.org For discworld fans: !discworld@lemmy.ml
