We're expecting a giant influx of users when the popular workaround, old.reddit.com (perhaps with RES to make it less outdated), inevitably gets shut down. Please try to make Lemmy a worthwile space in the meantime so that they stay!

As long as they’re fans of trans positive meme dumps and endless half-serious slap fights about distros, they'll feel right at home.

They won't even notice anything changed

...you also must despise Trump, and if you don't, you will.

Don't forget the Rule 34 manga and rhetoric of not sexualising anything. Also the college kid Marxists.... and Linux cults... And figuring out liberalism and "American liberals" are polar opposites. Basically avoid .ml And obviously don't let anyone know your skin colour, gender, or sexual preferences if they're vanilla. And support all war that's against Russia. I think that's it- Oh, and don't reply to the same person more than twice in a thread.

Apart from that, they'll feel right at home.

Ah, yeah, and obv use Thunder.

I've used both and have been daily driving Voyager for months, I'd say they're both great to the point it's a matter of taste. May as well give it a go if you're curious!

For Lemmy apps, it's best to try a few for a week or so each—theres a few good'nes—and you land on the one you like. I was just plugging Thunder because it's sort of like the Linux of Lemmy apps. All the cool underground kids froth on it and those that don't use it couldn't give a fuck, because they don't know any better, man!
