yeah u probably shouldn't have mentioned that lmao but no worries no one is going to read this thread anyway. you should refer to the site guidelines first and then check out the introductions forums to get started.

Nah you good

well, first thing to get started on is, go to the browse section (either manga or anime whichever you want to add), you can go by genre, popularity, average score, etc etc

as for information, check out the pinned one's when you enter the forum section, and definitely check this one out:
https://anilist.co/forum/thread/6125/1
this is the markdown, like symbols, text forms, etc

https://anilist.co/activity/152475987
activity guide, setting things as watching, completed, planning, dropped, paused

i guess that's all i can say at the moment, you'll learn other stuff as you go on
