I'm new to lemmy, came from reddit. What's the lemmy etiquette like? How different is it from reddiqutte? (lemmy.ml)

A major difference I noticed with Lemmy from my time on Reddit is communities aren't quite as rabid about strict adherence to their topic or gimmick. r/whatisthisthing banned me for seven days once for elaborating what an E6B flight computer is for. Because "This community is for IDENTIFYING the thing, not DISCUSSING the thing!" Not...so much of that around here.

We are working on it, sir!

I'd say that elaborating what it's for can be very helpful in identifying sometimes? Nice it's more chill here. Have a great day! :D
