It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.

I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.

I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.

And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.

    Welcome!

    Just like reddit, there can be a ton of downers and doomers.

    Just ignore them.

    Lemmy’s been great for the couple years I’ve been using it.

      Thanks, I’ll be alright. Mentally, I think I’m solid enough, so it’s no big deal. Plus, my hobby corners rarely get into emotions or politics
