I saw a mention of Lemmy on a random thread in r/politics so I'm tentatively having a poke about, since I've already tried to quit Reddit once (for Tumblr - it didn't stick). I remember forums pre centralised internet, is it something like that?
Welcome! Yes, it is something like that.
You chose the UK as your instance, so the local communities could already interest you: https://feddit.uk/communities
On top of that, here is a selection of 20 non-political communities: https://feddit.uk/post/22376629
App can be found on https://www.lemmyapps.com/
Finally, there is also !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca
Feel free if you have any questions!
Ah, thank you! I downloaded an app first, since I primarily use my phone for everything and apps are just easier. I think the one I'm using is called Boost? It is less confusing than I was worried it might be :)
A lot of us use voyager, modeled after apollo, but any lemmy UI is a good UI in my book.
There is also the lemmy explorer out there to help you find communities. https://lemmyverse.net/communities

Boost is a good one, enjoy!
