Title says it all!? I'm a reddit refuge and picked this instance because it's A) Canadian (I'm in MN, so consider myself an honorary Canadian), and B) The clean energy thing.

Applied to Beehaw but never heard back. Dittos on Lemmy.ML!

So hoping this is going to be a great "home" away from Reddit for the foreseeable future.

Cheers, and well done on the instance, admins!

Also a Reddit refuge. Just deleted a 6 year old account and all its content. It was a bit bittersweet but alas, it was time to move on with all that's happened. Also applied to Beehaw and Lemmy.ml but can imagine it might be a bit swamped as didn't hear back, so here I am. Glad to be here.

My requests didn't even get through. I applied here and it went right away so here I am.

I got a Lemmy.ml account approved, but actually loading anything on that instance was damaging my calm. You are not missing anything. Sh.itjust.works has been smooth, friendly, and just works.

Ya. It has been rather painless to use. How more people migrate so there is enough activity. Hopefully finding new communities will also become easier.

My account is going on 9 years. I'm not ready to kiss it good bye.

Great domain, site is responsive (after I tried couple others)

The description said english AND french so I hoped to discuss some french shit but as far as I can tell there is no french discussion, for now.

Edit : J'ai créé ça pour ceux que ça intéresse : https://sh.itjust.works/c/francophone. On verra si ça décolle mais mon but ne sera pas de le modder à terme.

Same. Maybe we should create some French-speaking communities?

[–] Twinax@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Creating means modding I guess, and I wouldn't be sufficiently available to do that, as I am also trying kbin/social and squabbles to see what sticks.

bah on peut parler français si tu veux mais il faut parler français pour avoir des conversations en français pour que l'on vois le français quelque part, mais si on ne le parle pas on ne le voit pas et il n'y aura jamais des discussions en français

Bien sur. C’est trop facile d’utilizer l’anglais souvent.

Moi, j’apprends le français et j’ai choisi cette instance pour apprendre plus.
