Previously this week I released a Lemmy guide in Finnish, as the platform has started to gain a bit more traction here. Based on that, I made an English version on my blog. I tell about what is Lemmy, how to choose an instance, how to find communities and how the interoperability with Mastodon works. I also tell a bit about mobile apps and my own experiences as an instance admin.

This is a great guide. The only quibble I have with it is the part about choosing an instance. There's one aspect where it does matter: not every instance federates with every other. It's good to be aware of any significant defederation vs what you care about when selecting an instance.
