Matrix space! Invite only until enough people join, for access, please DM
Discord TOS alert: mandatory arbitration. And ads.
Matrix Guide. Your Mastodon instance might have one to facilitate private DMing, so ping your admin first.
Most DMs can go to @fediversefittester@fedia.social (on Fedia.social, not .io)
Mbin now supports Lemmy DMs. If you are on Lemmy, DM @fediversefittester@fedia.io on this instance (fedia.io) :::
No Space or Willingness to Own a PortaCount?
HOW TO POST:
You DO NOT have to have a Fedia.io account to post here.
-
New User? Mastodon user?, see this comment!
-
Lemmy users can post the way they normally do to communities at !CPCSupport@fedia.io
-
Like the rest of the Fediverse, pay attention to the domain, be it mastodon.social, fedia.io, or lemmy.world. Then pay attention to the username. [at] fediversefittester [at] fedia.io
-
Make good use of the search tool! It's your primary way to navigate.
...what is a condensation particle counter used for anyway?

Umm... we'll think of other rules when they come up.

Subscribing + New Account Tips
You can sign up on fedia.io, and of course, you could always post using your Mastodon account by mentioning @CPCSupport@fedia.io in a pinch (as described above).
You can even follow @CPCSupport@fedia.io (a subscription!) at the risk of your timeline being clogged, should @CPCSupport@fedia.io (or another community/magazine) become popular.
If that becomes the case, you could follow just me, @CPCSupport@fedia.io
And finally, if you need a refresher on how to post a comment, click here.
But let's say you want to stop having a clunky experience interacting with the Threadiverse via Mastodon. Hey, do you want to be a part of the ActivityPub Fediverse (Threadiverse) that somehow gets as much engagement as Mastodon with a fraction of the servers, and so far, the only majorly competitive Reddit replacement (that also interacts with Mastodon?!)
You can create an account at one of the various Lemmy and Mbin servers/instances you can find on fedidb.org. (With the usual caveat of: browse around before you sign up)
Or... you could just create an account on Discuss.Online, like I have.
With a Lemmy/Mbin account, you can just subscribe by searching !CPCSupport@fedia.io and not have to worry about mentions and all that nonsense.
BONUS TIP!!! Check out old.lemmy.world!
For questions, DM @fediversefittester@fedia.social (fedia.social, not io). Lemmy users can send DMs to @fediversefitttester@fedia.io on Fedia.io.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like Lemmy DMs and Mastodon DMs interoperate. And Mbin has chosen to support Lemmy DMs. So be it...
