    I am a software developer working mostly in Python.

    My wife, my baby boy, and I live in Greenville, South Carolina.

    Right now my hobbies are basically organizing my life better (e.g. habitica.com) and reading blog posts like the ones in readsomethingwonderful.com.

    Hiya. Checking in from Florida… please don’t judge me by that. I work in the healthcare field and am a computer geek 🤓. I am yet another Reddit refugee and not looking back (deleted everything as well as my account there). So far enjoying Lemmy. I tried Mastodon and Kbin but the Lemmy platform feels the best to me. Looking forward to checking out new apps for Lemmy as they are developed and I am excited to see how Lemmy and the fediverse grow. Cheers!

    Hey Everyone!

    Super pumped to be here. My name is Andy and I’m an Archaeologist. I also enjoy watching films and playing video games with my kids. Looking forward to helping build a bigger community here!

      Hey have you found any interesting archeology communities yet?

      I know it has nothing to do with it but I used to enjoy the fossil id community on the other site.

    Hi! Another immigrant from reddit here I’m really excited to check the communities here. I like cats and tinkering with computers. Thanks for hosting this instance!

    Hi @grant thanks for hosting. I’m trying to find another instance other than lemmy.ml but when I browse all communities on toast I only get one page of results. On other instances I can see dozens of pages. Is this a temporary bug or does toast not federate with most instances?

      Hi! In the communities tab it will only display the communities that this instance has already interacted with (aka someone on this instance has subscribed to it)

      A method I’ve used to find new communities is by going to https://browse.feddit.de and copying the community id (eg !main@toast.ooo) into the search bar

      it may take a second for it to pull up the community in the search results, but once it loads you’ll be able to browse posts made to that community and subscribe to it

        I literally just saw this on another instance and came back to edit my post. The fact that you replied within seconds means I’m staying and will do my searches.

        Thanks again!
