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?

I also signed up to Mastodon, mostly to support the digitalcourage.social server, but probably won't be using it a lot. I didn't use Twitter, either, but Reddit. I will probably continue to use /r/flying and /r/synthesizer, as they are so niche that I cannot expect anything comparable here.

I'll have to figure out how to post with Mastodon account on Lemmy.

That's the one thing I'm having trouble with, the advice going seems to be that you can start those niche groups here, however I don't want to be in charge of anything. That's on me I suppose.

Ok, so what are you trying to say? I should not create a new group? This one is on feddit.de, as far as I understand how lemmy works. But I'm totally new.

[–] spezspezspaz@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it would be great if you did, I'm just not the type to want to be in charge of something is what I was saying.

Ok. Anyway, I took the dive and created a small niche group here and just see how it goes. Nothing going on yet. As would be expected.
