sniff... I know. Until I get my IRCv3 server off the ground, I'm stuck in normie-land.
But perhaps we can empower you to learn to DIY. ๐
I'm too lazy to make my own mastodon or Lemmy server. I'll make my own irc server if anything, that I know very well. Inspircd or equivalent is fine. IRCv3 isn't mature yet to deploy but http://ergo.chat is fully IRCv3 compliant.

Well, when you're ready to dive in you just let me know. It's not going to take a lot of time or money and it is rewarding.
For mastodon or Lemmy?
Lemmy is more challenging to get going. Mastodon would be a better start for you. While Lemmy has been around for 4 years, it still lacks a lot of the polish that Mastodon has.
The whole platform is just Twitter, which I hated and I hated how it's crossed over with Lemmy. It's as annoying as the pylink bots on multiple servers for the same channel on IRC. I just don't get the constant joining and merging. It's a ploy for the data mining psyop bullshit.
