A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I can't even be accepted to join Lemmy. I'm on Kbin right now.
Tbh, these platforms confuse me. The Kbin app is great though, so I guess I don't need to change.
Would like to know how to follow a group though.
On Kbin, Lemmy groups are called "magazines," so all you have to do is go to the magazines list, search for what you want, and subscribe. You can even subscribe to magazines hosted on other servers from there.
Lemmy is not one thing, it's a way for different sites (called instances) to share content with each other.
What instances (i.e. domains) are you trying to create an account on? There have been some big bot waves in the last few days, but even without that every instance handles signup differently. Some are totally open, while others require manual review of some kind.
