I know it may be a lot of users' first time using something that is decentralized like this. As I've been a Fediverse user for some time, I had been waiting for a big migration like this to happen as it usually happens with Twitter every now and again. Welcome to Fedi, hope you enjoy your stay!

Personally, I love it. I was disgusted by Reddit’s actions after 12 years of using the site daily and made a full hop over to the Fediverse.

I have deeper and more meaningful interactions with people and content. It’s been enjoyable for sure to see a quickly evolving and changing place.

I see a lot of people lamenting how the shutdowns didn’t kill reddit and how the Fediverse won’t ever take over reddit? And I couldn’t care less, in fact I think it’s probably a good thing. I like this more niche engagement and look forward to participating as it continues to grow.

I can most agree with the deeper and more meaningful interactions. Fediverse feels more interpersonal with others for sure, I've had huge threads in public Fedi networks where we get 20 people on a thread, just having some friendly conversation that you otherwise would not see on Reddit or Twitter.
