Originally established by moderators of r/Philippines as a short term Reddit alternative in response to the blackouts, it quickly took on a life of its own and now operates as a permanent separate community.

Members refer to themselves as either “lemmings”, “lemons” or the few punny titles with an interesting backstory (“sinuka ng Reddit”) such as “phlemmys” and “phlemmings”.

    Welcome, everybody! No doubt this part of the fediverse will see gradual growth, but just the same I’m pleased to see old and new names here. I can’t wait to be more active in interacting with you all =)

    I made a custom CSS style for Lemmy, baka gusto n’yo lang ibahin yung itsura sa inyo. I personally found the site hard to use, coming from Reddit, so I did this.

    Steps

    1. Install the Stylus extension/addon on your browser. (Chrome, Firefox)
    2. Install the custom CSS from UserStyles.world.

    Here’s what lemmy.world looks like 'pag naka-install na siya. Enjoy!

    This community is a lot more active than I expected. I should probably used the same username I had in reddit. Oh well. It’s a fresh start, I guess.

    So, I came from the main Reddit boards saying that you change sites altogether. Still retained an account with a similar username right there.

    Anyways, maligayang pagbabalik, kabayan.

    I had a roundabout way of getting here. Used a different server to create an account (kasi stuck sa loading yung sa lemmy.world), logged in there, searched for philippines in the All tab for communities, before subscribing LOL
