Feel welcome to use this post for testing purposes, feedback on the instance and to say hi!
Since the playground model wasn’t really that good (it prevents users from making things their home), I’ve decided not to announce this instance to be in playground/testing mode. Instead, i’ll simply try to make it work and hope that it won’t become an administrative nightmare.
However – things are looking quite good so far.
In the background i am currently trying to determine whether the current location is powerful enough midterm, if not, there will be a quick and quiet maintenance to move the thing to a more fitting place (looking at the potential upcoming wave from Reddit). Also there are some smaller things in the background still being worked on, but they shouldn’t affect users.
tl;dr have fun, if everything goes well, this will be a permanent place for people to enjoy – i hope. 🚀

Hallo und merci!
seems to be working now!
Nice grumpy cat.
Looks just like in our garden!
Lemmy definitely has a bit of a learning curve compared to reddit, but hey, nothing is free. Interested in seeing how this goes!
I’m curious about what #lemmy is or is heading at, and I don’t know reddit. We’ll see…
Just Hi everyone.
I arrived by the flight from reddit. It was all right, no major turbulences, landing was smooth. And for once security didn’t make me loose 3h at the airport.
Wonderful! Have a nice stay!
Hey everyone, I’m just looking at Lemmy for the first time. I’m still slightly overwhelmed 😁 But I had that at the beginning with Mastodon too. 😅
welcome! yes, first impression can be overwhelming but it usually doesn’t take long to get used to it. i even have the thing open in my phones browser sometimes which i rarely do with any site. :)
^Test comment. Ignore.^
Thanks for hosting this! Looking forward to participate in the communities here.
welcome!

I just tried to register, but I got a message that flashed up to the screen about email settings (and disappeared before I can read it) and some circle in a box is spinning at the bottom…
@vfrmedia interesting … changed something, didnt expect this to trigger a problem but yes email is not set up yet … does it work now? @milan@discuss.tchncs.de
@milan @milan@discuss.tchncs.de
I get a message when I try to log in “De registratie is in afwachting van goedkeuring.” (registration is waiting for approval - for some reason everything Lemmy related comes up in Dutch on my browser and has done for some years 😁 )
@vfrmedia okey, thats progress, please hold the line… @milan@discuss.tchncs.de
@vfrmedia hm email settings should now work, though there was still something wron when i accepted you @milan@discuss.tchncs.de
@vfrmedia (and mind that images are not ready yet… its an extra thing with lemmy) @milan@discuss.tchncs.de
Hi, I’m a first time lemmy user. It’s amazing what you set up at tchncs.de and I must say I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the choices. Thank you.
Same here. This is a whole different world.
Wie läuft das ab mit Communities, die hier nicht zu finden sind?? Z.B. https://lemmy.ml/c/hamradio Kann man die adden?
normal ja, über die suchfunktion, siehe https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/1216 – allerdings ist das bei lemmy.ml zur zeit etwas holprig mit dem subscriben
Du meinst wegen:
ya, wenn du glück hast geht das nach paar versuchen
Ist noch pending… Kein Ahnung…Mal schauen
Thanks Milan for setting this up! Works now from Jerboa for me :)
🎊
Since Reddit is currently performing the Twitter-Musk stunt and wants to have the API for third-party apps gold-plated, I have to give Lemmy a try.
Thanks to @milan@lemmy.ml for the opportunity.
Thank you for this instance Milan !
Well…I somehow managed to miss that this existed. Good to see you guys here!
