    It’s the way tech disseminates into the world.

    If you’ve been here for a month or more, you’re a first adopter and the true heroes of our cause. You take up what makes no sense to – what is untested and will likely be a waste of time.

    These people then tell the early adopters, which is what you are if you’ve been here for a couple weeks.

    Once we got on board, we told all our friends who join, and then the whole thing keeps snowballing.

    Of course, Lemmy really has Reddit to thank for making us all balk enough to take a look at fediverse stuff. Mastodon really didn’t do it for me when I checked on it a couple years ago, but this is awesome and totally makes sense.

    Playing around with Pleroma now so I can follow users here!

        You’re in for a surprise when the unifying hate towards reddit cools down, and the infighting between instances grows. :)
