Serious question, as I‘ve barely seen any mention of Lemmy on Reddit. None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware. Would it be against the TOS to start a coordinated promotion?

        It is! And I do want to figure out mastodon, if anything, for their Crafting/art community, but I’m having a bit of a hard time figuring ou if/how can I go around visiting other instances I know its possible somehow because users from different ones show up for me, but mastodon is the one in struggling with. It’s not like lemmy or kbin where I can see stuff, they prompt meto make ne an account before I can see anything and I just don’t know how to find the people in the other instances from mine yet. :(

          The easiest way is to search for hashtags and click through to profiles that look like they post interesting stuff. You can also check out https://fedi.directory/ where there are suggested accounts to follow for all kinds of different topics. If you’ve not made an intro post there yet, do that too with the tag #introduction and any other tags you’re interested in, that way people will come to you!

          Also what kind of crafts and do I already follow you there? 👀 lol

            Oh, you definetly don’t, I haven’t found the courage to post anything yet lol, but you’ll find me eventually, cause I really loved your profile so I’ll be following you once I have some time to sit down and focus a bit on mastodon again. Thanks for the tips I won’t give up on mastodon and try them out

            I think we’ll get along fine, I do embroidery in general, and I’m trying to drag myself back into sewing and crochet, it’s been a few years with those
