Because I may be posting the first stupid post. I recently discovered Perchance after getting far too annoyed with another platform. I saw a challenge and wanted to enter but it required me being a member of this site, Lemmy.World. So here are my question(s):

  • What is the purpose of Lemmy.World?
  • How is it used?
  • Is it like anything else I might be familiar with to help me understand better? (Note: almost 70 so may need old references.)
  • What’s the relationship between this site and Perchance?
  • What else should I know that I didn’t know to ask?

Because I was raised this way … thank you in advance for being patient with me.

    Others have summarised lemmy, lemmy.world and its use quite well already, so i just looked for the connection to perchance:

    I checked perchance.org and they mention that they have a community on lemmy where one can ask for help or share creations. (Similar to the “No Stupid Questions” community you posted this to)

    They specifically link to this community: !perchance@lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/c/perchance)

    So no real relationship other than that they use Lemmy as a platform for their users to exchange on and use lemmy.world as a “provider” for their community space (or “forum” in older words)
