Demo is the best, they always answer my questions and help sort out stuff.

A warm welcome, fellow fediverse surfer!
I see @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip has already been here to welcome you (that guy is legendary!), and he creates these awesome monthly update posts for Lemmy.zip and piefed.zip where he provides some cool insight into how the instances are doing, like traffic, scraping stats, storage space status, and more!
As for communities, there are plenty good ones for someone like you who like Linux and FOSS. I recommend just searching for those keywords and take a look at their content. The various instances and communities are run by very diverse people, and some may be more to your liking than not. I recommend engaging with both those you agree with and disagree with for a healthy mix of discussion.
Some of my personal favorites are !programmer_humor@programming.dev and !technology@lemmy.zip.

Thank you! I already saw the last update post, very useful to better understand how everything works here.
I also already subscribed to a bunch of communities just going off of their name, and now that you’re pointing it out, it will be very interesting to see the differences between them from instance to instance. Probably a lot more diverse than on centralized platforms. I’ll definitely check these two out too, thanks!
