It was straight forward for me - I did some googling to understand the way that different servers shared data, picked what I thought was a popular platform (lemm.ee) and setup shop with my first community (being migrated from you know where).
Same exact experience for me. It hasn't been too difficult to pick up the Lemmy basics. I only ever lurked on Reddit and here on Lemmy I'm trying to be more of an active participant.
The Jerboa app not working due to the lemm.ee server not being upgraded to v18 was confusing at first - but then I found the conversations going on and I understand why we haven't upgraded yet. I'm patiently just using the lemm.ee website directly.

Same here, and now I'm soo glad that I jumped that
shitship.
Yeah for sure. I went to the Join Lemmy website and was so confused about where I was supposed to create an account. Once I found lemm.ee and their intro to Lemmy article, it got way easier.
