Yeah the filters are key for removing lots of the American politics stuff. That was one of my fav features from Apollo.

If I have an alt account, but the same username and email, then all the things I sub to will be open, right? That’s the point of the open protocols? To keep that away from my username I would need a different email and different username, right? Maybe Reddit was just the same and I’m overthinking this.

Thanks for your reply!

Thanks. I’ll check it out.

Yeah. The knocks on .ml and hexbear seem to be common, so I’ll stay away from those instances and then just sub to the most active comms for now. Thank you!

Yeah. Thanks. Good to know it’s not a client issue and could be a host.

 

Hi. I created a lemm.ee account and hope for a Reddit alt. I came to Reddit from StumbleUpon and Digg so I’m open to migrating to the next good thing.

I paid for Apollo and loved it. And I’ve found Voyager to be pretty close. So that’s cool.

I was able to migrate my list of subscriptions and find many similar communities and I continue to explore and subscribe to active communities on Lemmy.

But a few questions I can’t find answers to:

  1. Can I create a multireddit in Lemmy/Voyager? Like I want to keep NSFW out of my home feed in case my kids look over my shoulder while I’m casually scrolling, but would like to save some favorite nsfw subs in one place for “future convenience.”

  2. Lots of posts say, “Failed to Load Media.” Is that a common Lemmy thing? Or Voyager? Or my device?

  3. Do I need to subscribe to communities on multiple instances? Like I see there are a lot of Technology communities across various servers. Do those aggregate to one place? Or do I need multiple subscriptions until I find the instance that serves up the best content.

Thanks for your help!
