Picking your first Mastodon instance to join can feel like a big deal - there's so many different options. Here's the good news - it's easier than you'd think.
A few years back it seemed better: fewer people meant recognised faces, regular chats, and almost a community feeling. I was in some kind of Linux instance.
Being much younger than most threw people off though, and I ended up feeling a little…on-the-outside and left.
I hopped on a week back and it feels so different now. Less community-oriented and all I find interesting is searching a hashtag and leaving.
I don’t know, maybe reddit (before the death) and lemmy have spoiled me, it just seems like random thoughts above all now.
Agreed with this.
