Hi everyone,

I’m new to Lemmy and still learning how everything works here.

I’m from China and just wanted to say hello πŸ‘‹

What communities do you recommend for new users?

Nice to meet you all!

ε₯½ε•ŠοΌWhere in China are you from?

I studied for a semester in 云南. ε₯½ζƒ³εƒη±³ηΊΏε•ŠοΌ

I miss so much food from China. Stumbling home drunk and getting fried rice cooked over one of those intense burners that sound like a jet engine. All the 烧烀 was incredible. And in 云南 the ε‚£θœ was always so special. 🀀

Because the fediverse is small, niche communities tend to have little content and it's quite likely that most popular content will end up in your feed. I found it was helpful to subscribe to communities after i saw a post i liked from that community.

Welcome, hope you like it!

Haha for sure! You should come back to China sometime. Wuhan (Hubei), Hunan and Jiangxi all have incredible cuisine. Super spicy, but totally authentic and tasty.

I've been there! Absolutely the best food ever. Climate is ungodly hot, but the food....

[–] Hengji@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Totally agree! The food is worth the heat πŸ˜‚
