Welcome!
Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.
And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ค๐

That's kind of where I'm coming from, initially. And since the flairs are the only major thing in the way of interoperability between Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed - while we'd need as much help with this as possible - I think ditching that part is best.
Oh sorry, I guess I misread your proposal.
To avoid starting from scratch, what would you rework from that post? https://lemmy.ca/post/40668574
All good :-) Do you mean rework to adress the whole fediverse? I wouldn't suggest turning newtolemmy into newtofediverse at the expense of losing a fine community tailored to Lemmy.
My point is, as someone being new to the Fediverse you may need both, at different stages.
And the 'read-only' resource jointhefediverse.net probably should avoid choice overload by not listing a ton of newtocommunities as next step(s).
Hence the idea of offering one community newtofediverse (or other title), that is for all the dozens of platforms, but with minimal input itself. Just a safe space for questions. I wouldn't fill it guide-like, only link to a few of those existing resources and newtolemmy etc. in a pinned post, instead.
The discussion here is helpful, but it's all pointless, if fediverse people don't warm up to the idea, signalling readiness to help with actual questions. We could rework the draft and suggest an instance (lemmy.ca?) in another post to the various fediverse@... communitys.
Agreed on the single community!
Would you be okay with the level of detail of https://lemmy.ca/post/40668574 ? It can probably be reworked to be platform agnostic
I think it's a great guide to answer questions about Lemmy, and so helpers also don't need to interact with the same questions over and over.
With a new community I personally wouldn't try to do the same for everything from Mastodon over Funkwhale to Mobilizon in one post. I would simply list 2-3 guides like https://jointhefediverse.net/ and https://joinfediverse.wiki/ plus 1-3 links per platform.
We can maybe focus our scope to Mbin / Piefed / Lemmy.
And then add links for other stuff at the end?
I feel like that makes sense looking from the POV of these 3 platforms, but it's not a logical focus after watching Rossini's video, for example.
I see. Would it be better if we added one link to guides to all the platforms, and then focus on Mbin / Piefed / Lemmy?
Something like
"Here is a link to resources for all the Fediverse platforms: https://joinfediverse.wiki/Fediverse_projects
If you are interested in a Forumverse platform (Lemmy / Mbin / Piefed), we have put together some resources to help new users get started.
(links to relevant communities and threads, similar to https://lemmy.ca/post/40668574)"
That's an option, yes. Maybe 'forumverse', 'threadiverse' etc on top of Fediverse is a bit confusing for starters?
If you are interested in forums, we have put together some resources to help new users get started with the platforms Lemmy/ Mbin / Piefed ...
Sounds good
