Before the whole Reddit migration I was passively aware of the Fediverse, I thought I somewhat grasped the concept, and had created a Mastodon account, but never really used it.
But once the migration started, I decided to try out Kbin, and really liked it, and even started to use Mastodon more often.

    I had heard of mastadon but since I was never really big into twitter, I ignored it. Also, I think the first article I read about it was on how to set up your own instance and invite friends to it and that seemed way more than I would want to do.

    Reddit, on the other hand, was a big deal for me, and learning about lemmy and kbin was an eye-opener. I was on digg before reddit and was afraid whatever the new thing was would eventually suffer the same fate, but I’m cautiously optimistic the fediverse model may be more resistant to the corrupting influences? We’ll see I guess.
