This is my first foray into fediverse things. I also signed up for mastodon today but I never really did Twitter to begin with so I don’t know if I’ll get in there and play much.
I have always done 99% of my random scrolling from my phone ever since phones and mobile internet got a) good enough and b) not cost prohibitive (I remember when it cost $X per Mb of data) but I’m not a huge fan of spending time on a browser but I think it was maybe 30 minutes after I signed up that I found the beta for Mlem and I have been very happy setting up my personal Lemmy experience ever since - following communities, reading resources and comments, etc. I’m happy to see some similar communities to some of the things I liked to scroll on Reddit either already here or being created and I’m sure as long as there’s a level of engagement it’ll continue to be a fun experience.
There is a bit of a learning curve here but it’s not that difficult to wrap my brain around. I’m looking forward to seeing what the fediverse community at large will look like as time passes.
