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!

Introducing myself here. I'm a refugee from Reddit. I'm a father, Catholic, lawyer from rural Alberta near Calgary.

I've always been a big fan of open source software and I'm trying to figure out the federated model of social media. I figured this is probably the right place for me to pop into and branch out from here.

Looking forward to eventually replacing Reddit entirely if the Lemmy instances get to that point.
