In my first impression of the fediverse it is interesting to visit the exact websites where some accounts are hosted. I am curious, how did you guys join the fediverse? I came across it through Mastodon --- https://joinmastodon.org/ --- and settled on qoto from there
@Piglet Heheh that sounds about par for the course. I'd tell my dad about it but he don't use social media that much.
@redlaserbm I use FB, Twitter, Linkedin guess I am a junkie
@Piglet Ah, I like to use instagram and twitter myself
@redlaserbm not keen on Instagram as I am more of a word person myself. Twitter is ok but rather aggressive/political. Linkedin is headhunters. Mostly FB for friends as everyone is still there

@redlaserbm i've had made an account on another instance a while ago, but quit the whole thing soon after, as the instance was regrettably more of an echo-chamber and filtering many parts of the fediverse. i'd rather decide what is filtered for myself, out of principle.
up until a few days ago when i was fed up with twitter seemingly consisting of ads and people throwing shit at each other. then i was browsing stuff by @lupyuen , read the about page of qoto.org and thought i'll give it another try. i'm rather pleased to far :)
@redlaserbm My son told me about it. Just trying to figure it all out now
