This question is especially for people who have joined in the last week. Have you used other fediverse platforms or is this your first time really using one? What do you think of it so far? Are you aware that you can comment on Lemmy posts with a Mastodon account?
I used Mastodon, but ultimately lost interest. It's been a long time since I've visited Twitter on a regular basis, and there is really no gap for Mastodon to exist in my personal life.
Precisely, the microblogging format really doesn't resonate with me. I don't feel I have anything necessarily good to announce to the world, but I enjoy a conversation or the invitation to share my own experience with something.
