Is Lemmy your first time on the Fediverse? (lemmy.ml)

This question is especially for people who have joined in the last week. Have you used other fediverse platforms or is this your first time really using one? What do you think of it so far? Are you aware that you can comment on Lemmy posts with a Mastodon account?

I used mastadon a but but never got hooked. Not because of the app but because the Twitter like format is only good if you have interesting people to follow.

I've always preferred the reddit style discussions.

Same here. Tried Mastodon, but the birdsite like way of following people, not topics, and having only this sites equivalent of "Sort by New", just doesn't work for me.
