I love how so many of us former reddit lurkers found a home on Lemmy/the fediverse. I have absolutely loved being a part of the greater community here, I don't know how else to describe it but it feels like my Internet home. I love all you fellow nerds. Obligatory fuck spez.

We love you, too. Even S'ned is warming to your presence.

It feels like mostly internet veterans and people that care to explain themselves to me. Less recent users that don't know technology or are newer to social media that isn't "mainstream".

Absolutely, this is really well said. I think because of the barrier to entry on this platform we are all a little more invested and I am here for it. I've hated what social media has become (Myspace was peak imo) and I'm so delighted the fediverse exists.
