Welcome to Lemmy! I'm glad you joined. There are tons of tutorials out there for how to use the platform, but if it helps, here's my advice:
I use the Android app Sync For Lemmy. Reminds me a lot of rif is fun from before Reddit shut down 3rd party API access about a year ago.
Lemmy.World is the name of the biggest instance on Lemmy. Think of it as a discord channel with different sub-channels except those are called communities here (and instead of r/ for subreddits we have c/ for communities).
There are still trolls here. What's nice about Lemmy is that you can block individual trolls, communities of trolls, or even instances of trolls (if you deem them so). Conversely, if you get banned from any of the above, you can make a new account on any other instance (like dbzer0 or shitjustworks) and still have access to the content from those people/places. The same is true if certain communities/instances change their policies on things like Luigi, which happened on Lemmy.World recently. I switched over to dbzer0 to avoid that censorship and to also see stuff about pirating - that which is banned on Lemmy.World.
Lastly, we can see posts/comments from other people on the Fediverse, like from Mastodon (Twitter alternative) and others.
Hope you enjoy your stay here! Lemmy is primarily tech- and politics-focused rn, but a lot of people draw parallels to Reddit's early days, which is good!
How do you do this? I was not aware this was possible
How do I do what
What i meant to ask is if i need to do anything special to see posts from mastodon
No I think they just show up randomly. You'll have to look out for Lemmy posts to see if anyone from Mastodon comments. Next to their name is their instance, so if I were on Mastodon, my username would be something like: Resonosity@mastodon.social or something
ah, ok! I'll do that. I'm mostly using lemmy.world, so hopefully i'll see it, but i wanna read through all that is said here and see if i could take advantage of more of what lemmy has to offer
See posts from Mastodon
They just show up in comments or posts on Lemmy. Usually you'll see people use a lot of @'s and #'s but they show up from time to time. I'm not sure if there's a way to see comments from Mastodon specifically
