Why does this sound so accurate 😭💀
I'm eager to see your guide.
Appreciate the enthusiasm man! Will do my best, and if y'all have ANY tips, shoot em up.
For the guide, I needed an explanation on how to subscribe to local vs. not local communities. Also, the difference in subscribing to a federated community that is already linked to your instance, vs linking it the first time (by copy pasting it's address into the search bar). Especially note that you might have to wait a few minutes after searching it the first time, refresh, then search again to be able to sub. That was really confusing. Also that process doesn't seem to work at all if you're in jerboa, at least for me.
Also, how to sub in jerboa: you probably have to open the sidebar.
Those have been most confusing so far. I didn't really need a guide on "this is how federated systems work", as much as a step by step guide for finding and subscribing to communities of interest. Honestly, an mspaint/screenshot idiot's guide with "click here first" level instructions would go a really long way in helping people figure it out, then we could copypasta it easily as well.
It's just embarrassing itself at this point, and the so-called spamming allegations were actually just bullshit coverup on me that reddit just broke itself.
I’ve been posting about Reddit blackouts and lemmy a bit lately.
Coincidentally:
I had a 15 year account suspended yesterday. Never an issue. I mentioned in a thread about red dead 2 that it was fun killing slave owning confederates. In video game. Banned for inciting violence.
Nope, I submitted my appeal and even contacted r/modsupport to actually see if there is any truth to the spamming allegations, but nope, they haven't given a single reply, just randomly brought back my account, just like they briefly banned r/LemmyMigration just to bring it back up as people started noticing them censoring things. They also did not remove any of my cross-posts.
I'm happy here now. There's enough traffic. I'll definitely miss the mainstream, art sites. Artists are not going to come here. But, I'll persist and enjoy the geeky stuff I love
