There’s an Aussie instance (correct term?) called Aussie.zone. It’s pretty friendly and has some city specific subs (magazines? I’m struggling with fediverse lingo) as well.
Ha yea, I wouldn’t worry too much about the lingo, as it’s not really sorted out or consistent.
Instance/server - a fediverse place where you need an account to post but can see other stuff from other places if they talk to Escher through federation
Community/group/magazine - basically like a subreddit, but can look more simple than that on other instances that are set up to do microblogging like Twitter.
Lemmy calls them communities (good name IMO), kbin (similar to lemmy) calls them magazines (fun but different) and the generic more technical name would be “group”.
Alcohol culture. All of it. Don’t want it gone or anything. But drowning the whole culture in alcohol just feels dumb.
I was going to answer this for Australia, which country are you from?
Aus too, not coincidentally!
Any good Aussie places to hang on lemmy? I haven’t really looked.

Thank you, that’s really helpful :)
What do you mean by “drowning the whole culture”?
