I made an account on sh.itjust.works because world was having some issues registering new users. Because of this small issue I ended up taking a deep dive into learning about the Fediverse. It's such a cool concept and really easy to use once you familiarize yourself with it.
It's also awesome that instances can federate with one another, so communities can continue to grow! I was apprehensive of making the switch initially due to the presumption that it would require a steep learning curve, but I learned how to access, browse, and interact on lemmy in 15 minutes or less lol.
I keep mentioning it, but the fediverse reminds me of my early days of browsing reddit back in the mid-late 2000s. Lemmy feels like home and I can't wait to see it grow :)
And it's real good to see you here, if this is the original PK.
Yep, it's really me! I made my first sourced comment the other day about Twitter and Elon Musk.
This just made my day, so glad poppin is here!
