What's the story of you coming to Fediverse? How did everyone ended here?
Around 4 years ago.
For me, I was just looking into the list of Software under the GNU Project on Wikipedia.
There I found about GNU Social, through that I found about Fediverse, through it I found about Mastodon.
Well then I looked up into Mastodon. Found an instance called eldritch.cafe , the name sounded cool so I joined it.
As it is a French instance mostly focusing on Queer, I didn't had much communication breakthrough on it. I was a dead account there for almost a year. Though it still gave me a window into Fediverse.
Afterwards I created an account on mastodon.online and there I truly started to intereact with others. Most of my current Fedi friends are from this era.
During this mastodon.online period, I also created various secondary accounts on other instances like mstdn.social and some Pleroma instances too (though now all of them are dead)
I came to qoto I think around 2 years back? well the reason for that was cause I used to follow @freemo (I still follow him) and basically I just like his way of running the his own instance. The whole concept of STEM based network. Also 65K character limit (This toot itself is now bigger than 500 Chars)
So yeah that's the story
@mur2501 about 3 years ago I read a news article on a little knows website talking about how Indians are migrating from twitter to here. I wasn't even active on twitter but wanted to see what the deal was about. The initial days were great, everyone was so friendly and like minded, shitposting was at it's peak. Then the twitterati left, but I liked the space here. You can be whatever you want, speak whatever you want, and no one will judge you. So I stayed.
