What is Lemmy?

Lemmy is link aggregator software that exists in the fediverse, meaning it connects with other "ActivityPub" software like Mastodon and other Lemmy instances. Basically, you can follow and interact with communities here on Lemmy.one, on any other Lemmy instance, or even from your Mastodon account!

What is Lemmy.one?

Lemmy.one is a general-purpose instance of Lemmy—a self-hostable, decentralized alternative to Reddit and other link aggregators—hosted by myself (Jonah). I am the administrator of the Mastodon server mstdn.party, and the founder of privacyguides.org.

This instance is generously supported by our contributors, if you use this instance to interact with the fediverse, please consider a monthly contribution to support my work.

What are the rules here?

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, or casteism
  2. No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies
  3. No harassment, dogpiling or doxxing of other users
  4. No content illegal in the United States, Germany, or Finland
  5. Do not share intentionally false or misleading information
  6. Do not spam or abuse network features.

As a general-purpose instance, we do not have heavy moderation in terms of what topics people are allowed to post about, however all users are expected to follow our rules at all times, and generally be nice and friendly on the federation.

Please report all content you see which might violate our rules for evaluation. If you are on a remote server, please forward any reports of our users to our server for our moderators to take action, we pledge that remote reports will remain confidential within our moderation team and will not be used for any form of retribution against the reporter.

Very, very slowly getting the hang of this. I got the Mlem iPhone app on testflight, but it's not as nice to use for discovering new communities as on the desktop. Thanks for hosting this beginner-friendly instance!

Try browse.feddit.de

+1 for browse.feddit.de

I haven’t tried Mlem just yet, been on the browser for now, but I have been using lemmy explorer by @andycuccaro@lemmy.ml for the past two days.

You can set your home instance, then you can search for and navigate to available communities from your home instance automatically. Less copy and pasting imo!

Some apps are better than others at specific things like this. I encourage you to check out Thunder, Memmy, and Liftoff as well, all for iOS. My preference so far is Memmy, and their latest search function is pretty good for communities, posts, and profiles.
