I’m confused asf

DrSleepless, Bake a cake
atticus88th, And post it ona food community. If anyone figures out how to join one, that would be a great next step.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, Whatever you do, don’t hold your poop for three days
benderbeerman, I would think that holding your poop for any amount of time would be no good. I usually deposit mine directly into a convenient flushable porcelain receptacle, no extra handling required
MystikIncarnate, Yeah, I try not to touch poop at all, this guy is holding it for days!
What a weirdo!
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, Is?
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, Flushable?
whostosay, No one is gonna ask the important questions around here? I’ll give it a whirl: Is extra handling optional?
Misfit_Lamb, Is this a future Lemmy museum story?
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, Future?
Madbrad200, Search for communities that interest you! It’s just like Reddit, once you curate your own experience you’ll enjoy it :) check out my list of casual/fun communities on Lemmy, or browse Lemmyverse for a list of all of them.
I_Fart_Glitter, EEEEE!!! Both of my communities made your list!!! Thank you!! (It’s beebutts and awwnverts).
new_acct_who_dis, How do you search? I’m on sync and don’t know how to look for things on purpose
Madbrad200, Sync has search but it’s a bit limited. Use Lemmyverse instead :)
new_acct_who_dis, But… How?
Madbrad200, open your browser and go to lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active&nsfw=… - is this not working for you?
Search bar in the top left, or scroll through.
shogun5000, Blame capitalism for all of your woes like a real “I am smart” edge lord. You’ll fit right in, lol.
lasagna, Grab some water and stay hydrated.
SupraMario, Use old.lemmy.world
And download an app like liftoff to make viewing easier.
Go to all on the app, find your interests and subscribe to them. Then filter by subscriptions, so you don’t see a ton of stuff you don’t want to see.
ZoopZeZoop, I go the other way and hide the communities I don’t want to see (e.g., I’m not into yiff). I do subscribe to ones I want to see, too, but mostly I view all with some filtered out. New communities are being developed every day and I might miss some with the subscribe method.
SupraMario, That’s not a bad idea!
unskilledlabor, There’s a bunch of different looks to try, personally a.lemmy.world has been my favorite so far.
SupraMario, O damn, I didn’t even know this! That’s awesome, is there a list to check out? I probably will stick with old.lemmy.world, but that’s cool that there are other layouts/looks.
vettnerk, Select “All” instead of “Local”, sort by “Top 12 Hour”, and enjoy.
Ungoliantsspawn, This and keep subscribing to anything that interests you
unskilledlabor, This is the way.
paddirn, Post nudes
dublet, Is this what you want? Sorry, I’m dyslexic
paddirn, Sorry, let me rephrase that:
duNes stoP
dublet,
JackOfAllTraits, Plz more
MintyAnt, Bless the op and his duneposting, bless the coming and going of them. May their memes cleanse this comment section.
moobythegoldensock, Search lemmyverse.net/communities for any communities you may be interested in. Many of them have the same or similar names to reddit subs. Also, subscribe to !newcommunities. Once you have a few, flip your feed over to “subscribed” and browse your custom feed. Occasionally pop back into All to see if there are any other good ones you may have missed.
If you hate the web version of lemmy like I do, check out the mobile apps, which tend to have a more reddit-like design.
And once you’ve done all that, the only thing left to do it shitpost.
mrjfilippo, First I tried a few mobile apps, sticking with Sync for Lemmy for now.
I also went to Sub.rehab, filtered by highest active users and subscribed to the communities I was interested in. Then subscribed to a few I was interested in even if it has a low amount of users.
LaggySnake, Try to find funny posts, although that might be somewhat of a challenge.
zombie_kong, Have a nice sit down.
SillyBanana, Post the first thing that comes to your mind in !nostupidquestions. Oh, wait…
rufus, Find and join a few communities you like…
Myro, If you are using your phone, get one of the mobile apps (Voyager, Liftoff, Infinite, Connect or Sync for Lemmy) and then use it just as with reddit. You already have created your account, thus chosen your instance, which is the biggest ‘This is different’ topic.
chrizbie, heh, hem! Jerboa
figaro, Ok so I know Jerboa has it’s fans, and I’m sure I’m going to get downvoted for this. But.
In my opinion, Jerboa has the worst interface of all of the lemmy apps that are out, and should not be promoted to new users.
I said it. Bring on the downvotes. It hurts because in your hearts you also know it is true.
Kecessa, I don’t know that it’s true because I’ve never seen what the other apps look like!
I was also a Baconreader user so I’m used to not having a fancy UI
zeekaran, I’ve used Jerboa and Liftoff and Jerboa is much better. What do you use? What specific things make it better?
figaro, I was using Connect, and am now using Sync.
To be honest, I don’t remember the specifics of Jerboa. I remember it feeling very utilitarian though. Not terrible for some people, I understand that. It just felt like it was designed by programmers, if that makes sense.
I prefer a more white-space centric design. Cards, material design, with gesture based controls. Connect actually does that well, but I think Sync might be coded better differently, because it feels a lot more smooth. No jankiness. It doesn’t feel like a web app.
I kinda threw a lot of concepts out there, hopefully some of that made sense haha.
Also, I don’t mean to say that people who like Jerboa are somehow wrong - you like what you like and I’m glad you have something that you like :D.
zeekaran, Just tried Connect and Liftoff and both were bad compared to Jerboa. On one I couldn’t even figure out how to down vote. I think I’ll wait a few more months and try out the competition again.
