The onboarding will offer you a lot of topics to sign up to. These contain communities in them. The idea is to populate subscription feeds, however it can leave some users with a lot of undesired subscriptions if they click too many.

If you wish to roll this back. Go to Settings -> Profile and click the yellow bar. Don't click the red bar!

But welcome, and feel free to post your thoughts here.

!newcomers@piefed.zip for a specific community also devoted to new users to the Fediverse.

Neat ! What’s the reason for the influx of new users?

[–] Skavau@piefed.social 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Successful posts on r/buyfromeu mostly. I think some others too.

Ah, should have guessed it was a Reddit thing 🙂

Wow, I didn't know there is a South Africa instance!

It didn't exist until last week.

I'll move the South African sub to it eventually
