A place for Freemasons (and non-freemasons) to discuss the fraternity. No spam, no conspiracy theories, or bashing others. This is not a tyled area.
Hello Brethren, greetings from the Grand East of The Netherlands! I too am a migrant from The Old Site. I recently became a Master, and have been enjoying my first two years of Freemasonry. I'm currently functioning as "Kappelmeester" (Chapel Master?, the one that does the music, microphones, audio, etc)
Nice to meet you!
Welcome!
Greetings from the Grand Lodge of Indiana (USA).
I am a current Master of the Lodge (5-time Past Master). Former Secretary.
I'm a warm body in a small town, and I know some ritual, so I'm in high demand. 😊
Welcome! It's pretty inactive in here after the initial Lemmy migration died out, but glad to have you!
Something I just noted. I have no clue as to whether this is a feature or a bug but some communities are duplicated across different servers - there are several 'Technology' for example, and I've seen some others - they're clearly not just mirrors or something because the subscriber numbers are wildly different.
As I understand it the Lemmy rules state that you're supposed to check before you create a community, but clearly if you originate it on a different server to the existing one that duplication is allowed. I only mention it because its probably worth keeping an eye out for other 'Freemasonry' communities popping up, so we can let them know that this one already exists...
I think that's a feature rather than a bug? It would be unwieldy to make people check every Lemmy instance for duplicate communities, but I'll be interested to see how that works out over time since (as you noted) we can look at and join communities outside our home instances
Greetings to all of you from Pennsylvania! As this is the internet, remember you don't have to be completely specific as to your identity. Remember that this is not a tyled lodge, the community is open to all.
Moderation will be limited, please keep posts related to Freemasonry. I will also add a few other mods when the time comes.
Thanks for joining us!
