Friendica New User Tutorial Recommendations


!New To Friendica

Hello, I'm writing a #friendica tutorial for folks who want an alternative to Facebook. Nearly all of the target audience have never even heard of friendica. Since this is a group of individuals who are also new to friendica but have at least found your way here - I would like your input.

What is something that you have learned about friendica that you wish someone had told you at the very beginning?

How to choose a node/server and a list of suggestions with short description (how stable, hosted where and by whom). The directory on friendi.ca is crazy slow and complicated, luckily i found one that seemed ok ln the first page… Most nodes list very few info and also for .world I needed to go check the profile of the admin to get pertinent info. With disclaimers of course that you’re not responsible… but otherwise it gives a huge headache if you don’t have a friend who tells you ”take this one i have it too”.

Olá, estou precisando muito de ajuda. Na descrição daqui existe uma lista de servidores para interagir: Diaspora, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Pielfed, Pleroma, Tumblr... Gostaria muitíssimo de fazer estas conexões para ter aqui como um lugares robusto para o fediverse.


Hi,

My name is Surfer Ken and I'm #newhere. I am still fairly new to the #fediverse and to #friendica. I'm learning as fast as I can and I am looking forward to learning more with you.
