Is Lemmy your first time on the Fediverse? (lemmy.ml)

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?

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. 😆

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.

I need to remember to look into BookWyrm and pixelfed again someday, but I'm pretty busy with lemmy already. I think Mastodon might be good for sharing pics, not sure - right now I'm sending box links to family who don't have Signal. Then again, I don't usually want to share most pics with the world so...
