I also joined from the reddit AMA and just learning about fediverse (how have I been a software developer for 15 years and not learned about this thing is beyond me). Looking forward to seeing how this thing develops, it is an amazing idea.
I’ve known about the fediverse for a while now but I have struggled actually getting into it for a long time but this was the tipping point. After using this I got a PeerTube account, then I got into mastodon. This whole thing is an amazing concept that I love to death now and I look forward to watching it grow and expand!
I’m also here from the reddit AMA. I’ve bounced around reddit, mastodon, hn, tildes, and some half-baked attempts at reddit alternatives. This one is easily, by a country mile, a much better reddit alternative than anything else out there. In terms of design, the mission, the awesome personal politics of the devs who I 100% support, and the fact that it plugs into a bigger mission of federation, unlike, say, tildes.
I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. It’s the perfect upgrade from the reddit ui, it’s super fast and the personal politics of the admins really makes it infinitely better than almost every other alternative because they almost always go for “absolute free speech” leading to the people who got kicked off of everything else to end up there like voat (though tbh it could have started racist idk enough)
thanks :thumbs up: I think this community is new.
I’m here from the reddit AMA, I’d wager a lot of other people are as well

Thanks :smiling face with sunglasses: If even a few ppl are happy with it, then we’re doing a good job.
