I have to be honest, this was a bit of a painful (but hopefully fruitful) experience. I had to learn about the Fediverse, figure out which ones to join, decided on Kbin but had to abandon ship as it was too slow as an PWA, ended up in Mastodon but for some reason I could not access other instances, got over here but still had to troubleshoot (and still figuring out) how to join communities. But fuck that - I'm just happy to make my first comment!
I've been on Reddit for 8 years (mostly as a lurker) and am quite saddened with its current state. I hope I get to find my safe space here.
I'm just happy I made it.
