Community for the Feddit UK instance.
A place to log issues, and for the admins to communicate with everyone.

Hey everyone. I'm a new to Lemmy after making a start to remove myself from big tech. Sorry if the questions are basic. First question is- how to choose which server as your 'home'. I chose feddit because I'm from the UK, but I live abroad- does that mean I should chose one only from the country I live in? And if you use a VPN does it matter anyway?

I came from reddit and it's not anywhere near as good unfortunately and obviously there are far fewer people on here, but I'm here to stay so want to make the best of it. TIA

Can confirm this is a very good instance. Admin team is competent, we seemingly have a decent level of funding going through donations to keep things afoat, and in general things flow nicely in a no nonsense way.

And you can of course always switch to another instance (with some effort in migrating your settings) in the unlikely event something starts bothering you in this particular shire.
