Fediverse

It seems to me like many have arrived from huge mainstream sites and don't realize that the fedi is actually pretty big. There are many thousands of us, just look at this community's stats alone!

When you've explored beyond the core of the internet and found websites where there truly are dozens of you, it's much more calm and communal (or as screentime enthusiasts would call it, slow and ded). I actually was on Lemmy back when there were mere hundreds of us, when many were yearning for the day when reddit would shoot its own foot and bring people here. So I'm very grateful that there aren't dozens of us! Welcome!
