Renewable energy seemed good.

It Just Works!

I'm on a different instance, but I figured I would just say hello to a fellow Minnesotan!

Been here since almost the first day the server opened up: what makes this place different is our ruleset, admin and users.

Ruleset: Very simple and basic. @TheDude doesn't want to over-moderate, as far as I can tell. No need to tone-police or clamp down on what people can/can't say, as long as it's respectful. I really like that approach.

The admin: From his posts and the sheer rock-solid stability of this server and laid-back attitude, the dude abides. I know I'm not the only one who joined because of this post. Networking experts, server admins, devops guys, if they're anything like me, they look at that and think "Yup, this is where I wanna be".

Users: Early days yet, but so far the people here have been very laid-back, very nice, and helpful. Been trying to get all the newbies situated myself whenever I spot questions I can answer :) I'm hoping we can maintain this culture going forward.

Started out on lemmy.world, but the server was slow and laggy. When I saw a comment by someone from sh.itjust.works, I knew I had to pack my bags and move here. No regrets.

Well, as a french speaking person that is the only EN/FR server i found :)

name and logo tbh

I liked the domain. It makes me smile.

I joined because the rego page for lemmy.world wouldn't work, overloaded?

Lemmy.ml bans you for criticizing the ccp and personally don't like beehaw because admins decided to make subs and run them.

I'm not a user on this instance, but from what I can tell, shit just kinda works over here.

Whère èlse are you goïngue tou spique tou différente langüadgize ine ze sème plaïce?

I chose this one because it had open registrations. lemmy.world and .ml were my first choices simply due to size.

The icon of the happy lemming does it for me.

I appreciate the 'Honorary Canadian' bit, too... I used to live in Duluth and have said the same myself!

Same as you beehaw was going to be my first choice but I couldn't get an account even after I read their docs and wrote what I thought was an essay. I like the tongue in cheek name and that they have open registration. I am also hopeful this will be my reddit replacement but I think it's too early to say for sure. Seems to be a chill community so far.

IDK the seal icon got me :)

I've been using this instance for the last few days, and (sh)it just works without hassle!

I like Canada even if I'm not from it. Plus it seems like a nice quiet place to call a Lemmy home and figure this whole thing out without being overwhelmed. Like, peer into the All and go "whoa man" then just hit Local and chill for a bit.

"this instance" :) I see you're on sh.itjust.works. I'm currently posting from fedia.io. Theoretically all the "fediverse" instances should interact with one another.

It has a funny name of course!
