2 days and 93 subscribers already, good job
thank you! We’re doing it collectively. I’m looking forward to our further growth.
r/Aspiememes and r/Autism were both places that I really felt that others understood who I was and how I experienced life. it’s great that people are making their way over here!!
Just discovered that my comment gets deleted as I type it if my phone switches screen layout, so let’s try this again: This has been my exact experience. I went from my kids jokingly saying “Yeah, I think Dad’s just autistic” to me finding the r/autism subreddit and relating way to hard with folks there, to discovering self-assessment RBQ-2, AQ, RAADS-R, SQ, EQ, and CAT-Q tests that all spelled things out plain as day, to my kids being like “Yeah, Dad. We were weren’t joking. We meant that you are actually, literally autistic”.
I understand myself better because of r/autism, and I’ve learned to have more patience and understanding for myself. I’ve found my people.
I’m so relieved to find this! I’m going to miss r/autism, but I really look forward to making new friends here! Reddit has been something of a coping mechanism and self regulating tool for so long, it’s comforting to know that I have a new home here.
This is exciting! I’ve only ever lurked on autism forums before but I really like the friendly vibe here. Looking forward to seeing this place grow. 👍
When I view/c/autism I only see posts that are older than 15 days old. I can see newer posts when viewing “all”. The same bug occurs whether I am in an app or using a browser. Does anyone know who to contact about this? Or is something wrong with my settings?
Does it only happen in our community?? I have no idea what that could be. I would post on !support@lemmy.world asking for help. Let me know what they say.
I don’t know. I haven’t been on lemmy for very long. I was viewing a post on another instance and wanted to comment, but needed to switch to my lemmy.world instance. I didn’t see the post, so I went to the community page. That’s when I noticed the bug. I know that some other communities that I’ve clicked on haven’t had this problem. But some have the same error. I know that I was looking at another community to decide if I wanted to subscribe and all of the most were a month old or older. I just assumed that the community wasn’t active anymore or that a mod had deleted posts. I’ll check out the support page you linked. Thank you.
That’s odd. I hope you get it figured out. You’re welcome!
does add count?
All neurotypes are welcome, so everything counts! While this community might not be specific to ADHD, there is a lot of overlap between autism and ADHD. Enough so that the co-occurence is often written as AuDHD.
There are no rules that say users can’t make andy ADHD posts and due to the co-occurrence, other users might find the post relevant, so go for it. If it gets “too much,” we can address is in a mutually beneficial fashion once it comes up. For now, have fun.
I made a post just for you: https://lemmy.world/post/31269?scrollToComments=true
