Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

you can search for communities on other instances, and interact with them from monyet.cc. so you don't have to create an account on every instance you find interesting communities in.

however, quite a number of people have backup accounts on another 1 or 2 instances (in case the main instance they're using ever experiences some downtime), so if you want to do that, it's fine.

iirc, this guide by dcx used to have screenshots showing you exactly how to search, but I think they've been removed. it's still recommended reading though.

probably a good rule of thumb would be: search for communities like [!fediverse@lemmy.ml](/c/fediverse@lemmy.ml) on the communities page; for posts/comments (via direct url), use the search page.

have fun exploring the fediverse!

omgg thanks! i like how it covered how to turn on dark mode as well.

the UI definitely takes a while to get used to, hopefully i'll master it in a week's time.
