If you found this post, you're an eager beaver since we haven't set things up yet. Please bear with us as we work on setting up this community. We may change things rapidly as we learn more. We're all new to Lemmy / the fediverse just like you :)

If you have any feedback or thoughts on setting up the community, please let us know in this thread.

How do I make an account?

If you have already made an account on a different Lemmy instance/website, you can use that same account. Just copy "!ubc@lemmy.ca" into the search bar on your Lemmy instance. You may need to wait a few minutes if you're the first one to look for it from that instance.

If this is your first time, you can make an account by clicking the sign-up button above. You may need to wait for your account to be approved by the admins of lemmy.ca.

I'm bored, what else can I do?
