There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

Thanks for the warm welcome smorks! Also here from reddit, and I can already tell that this is the online community I've been yearning for. People connecting with each other, engaging in discussion. There's a lot of good things that came from reddit over the years, but as I've read so many times in various relationship subreddits "When people show you who they are, believe them the first time" (sorry Maya Angelou).

Spez showed us what he really thinks of his userbase, and I'm proud to add reddit to the list of corporations I won't use because they're dicks.

Ahem.

Really glad to see a strong Canadian contingent here. May your timmies be hot and your beer cold ๐Ÿ˜
