I did the boomer move, trying figure out how to use the fediverse and I made a account for each instance. I realize I didn’t need to do that and made one here. It’s nice to see things like Gardening, enviroment, city subs, etc ANY social media is a constant eye rape of American politics. Not my problem.
I ended up with multiple accounts too (I couldn’t get this instance to show up with a search on the first one). I’m happy I did though - there are less bugs when using an account on the same instance than from a federated site, and I am using the different accounts as custom feeds.
One thing I really like on this instance is that because community creation is not a free for all the communities all work together instead of being a random conglomeration. It also means the server is less likely to be overwhelmed as a few of the more open instances have been, and less likely to have the costs of maintaining it spiral out of control and become unsustainable.
