Please take a few minutes to introduce yourself here. Like many, I am someone who was active on both /r/diabetes and /r/diabetes_t1 over on Reddit and am hoping to recreate some semblance of a community here. I’ve been a T1 since 1983 and am currently using the Omnipod and Dexcom G7 with DIY Loop. Diabetes has definitely been a struggle for me at times, but I am really fortunate that I’ve been able to access such amazing technology.

So who else is here?

    Just tried to post a new thread, but it never gets posted. Have tried using the Memmy app, also web browser. Trying a comment here to see if that works.

    Edit: Well yes, that worked. Will try a new post again.

    Edit 2: I still can’t create a new post, it just sits there, never completing.

      It might be that Lemmy is overwhelmed. I’ve had that happen sometimes.

        I did wonder that. I guess this weekends Reddit app stop will up the Lemmy user count.

        I’ll try again, thanks ….

          Please try again and let me know what happens. It’s possible there’s some group setting issue, but I checked and anyone should be able to post to the group.

            When I tried it again several hours later, it posted instantly.

            I should’ve replied here to let you know, sorry about that.

              No worries. I saw it. Thanks for confirming. Hoping to get some more activity from those migrating from reddit or just looking for an alternative.
