    Hi, I made this account because I’m still figuring out where in the fediverse I belong. I migrated away from Reddit for the same reasons as everyone else. So far this instance seems nice and chill.

    Hello! Like most, I’m fleeing Reddit following the API changes and finding that I actually like this place a lot more. It brings to mind early 00s Internet where it was a much tighter community and your voice was actually heard (prior to shouting into the void xD)

    Anyway, I’m Sebastian - Seb is fine. Homoromantic ace medical student from England, UK. Looking forward to (hopefully) making friends here!

    Hi, the discomfort by the current state of web2.0 things have been making me flee into decentralized platforms during this last year. In particular the Reddit changes are the ones that made me leave Reddit, though I was sporadically active there -though long time user- and, tbh, the only actual subreddit I really enjoyed (and I usually joke about it being the Only Good Subreddit) is r/askhistorians. So far I am enjoying the threadiverse despite how rough around the edges it still is and I have been more active in this last few days than probably been on reddit for a year. Every now and then I search for instances and communities around the lemmyverse explorer to find interesting communities and I believe that’s how I got here.

    About who I am, My name is Bruno, I am a 38 yo cisgender gay leftist based in Uruguay. I do research in mathematics for a living and I enjoy playing Nintendo games. I am very bad at writing introductions so I guess I’ll finish here but maybe add things later as they come into mind.
