Elena Rossini's accounts/blogs regarding fediverse, hosting etc. are worth following anyway, now she produced this cool video. Several subtitles were already contributed.

Really good video. And it introduced me to https://jointhefediverse.net/ which I didn't know before. Good site explaining the Fediverse and showing all the different softwares.

I didn't know it either and it's avoiding not enough/too much information nicely. For me the cherry on top would be a link to a kind of 'No stupid questions'-Community for interested or new users.

Afaik, the sites' content is managed on GitHub, so you could suggest a change there or do a pull request yourself.

After a very quick search I don't see a community for that purpose and the whole fediverse yet. The general fedi comms and the specific !NewToPiefed@piefed.ca and !NewtoLemmy@lemmy.ca could be linked there.
Maybe I'm overlooking something outside of Piefed and Lemmy?

!newtolemmy@lemmy.ca could probably be the go to as it has more content, and a nice pinned post (https://lemmy.ca/post/40668574)

We might want to create an instance agnostic community though

After watching the video (for example) and the join... an all-round comm would be a nice next step, then great communitys and resources like newtolemmy.

Piefed's flairs could come in handy to filter different kinds of questions.

I would even make it simpler: combine both "newto" communities to a single one. A single place where all new joiners can ask their questions, and where we have two pinned posts, one for each platform.

@otter@lemmy.ca , what do you think?

That is a great resource to have, I'm surprised I hadn't seen it before.

The shirt???!??

Anyway looking forward to watching this on break.
