Iโve been on Mastodon for a little less than a year. It was never really my thing. I like Lemmy much more!

First time. Still learning a lot. I kind of like it.
No, but the first time i am planning to use it. I created a Mastodon Account but never used it.
No, but I only start using #fediverse at the end of last year and not until late february I actively posting there. This is my first time using lemmy though, I end up making new account because from my experience, it is better using different account for different segment of fediverse.
I have a mastodon account but didn't really use it at all.
Lemmy is my first
I love the idea, I hope it grows in popularity
I wasn't aware of that when I first signed up, but a few days in I learned that
Yep, I've heard of Mastadon before. Honestly, I prefer the Nostr model more. I'm kinda worried about the moderation of instances messing things up for Lemmy, but so far enjoying myself.
Yeah, I knew about mastodon and stuff before but never made an account or checked it out much. Now I get it lol.
Mastodon was my first experiment with federated platforms, but I use that account the same way I used Twitter before: read only. Message board/forum is more my style, and I'm liking Lemmy a lot so far; the underlying concepts (both of federation generally and Lemmy specifically) seem good, and I'm excited to see further refinement.
No, I signed up for Mastodon long ago. Didn't get a ton of use out of it, but I posted there occasionally. I've had too many platforms bought out from under me and turned to crap, so the idea of the fetaverse appeals to me. Okay, the fetaverse was invented by Android voice dictation. I invite everyone to come up with their own ideas of what that Greek cheese-based universe might be like. ๐
But I've gotten far more into the Fediverse In the last two or three days then in the previous 59 years. I've set up Lemmy, kbin, and BookWyrm accounts. I know they can all theoretically connect, but I don't know how to do it yet.
Lemmy is my first experience in the fediverse, but I also decided to make a mastodon account for anything I want to be public and open about (I have never really used twitter, and never plan to). I put my mastodon link on my fb page, so that people know where to go if they insist on using social media to contact me.
Friendica was actually the first time I was exposed to the Fediverse like a decade ago but I didn't use it because what are friends. Back then I still had a Facebook lol. It wasn't until recently that I officially joined Mastodon first. I honestly wish I hadn't waited as long as I did (same with using Linux). But now, I'm not looking back.
My first (yet extremely good) Fediverse experience has been on Mastodon.uno
I dabbled a little in Mastodon, but never really got off the ground with it.
I've played with Mastadon a bit in the past but not much. I didn't know you could comment with that account. Interesting...
Taking some getting used to but it reminds me of very old school Reddit in a lot of ways. Feels good so far.
