Alright I just created my own server with my own lemmy instance and created my first account. Let's stop lurking and push this number!
My buddy did that too. Right now it's just our group but he wants to expand a bit once things are more set up.
I don't know what most of that means but I'm somehow here too!
I some times feel a bit alone on lemmy solely because I'm not as tech inclined as a lot of the userbase, but it's reminders like this that make me feel a bit ok about it.
That's ok. I use Windows instead of Linux and I like it here since it's not the endless circlejerk that mainstream reddit with all the influencer posts and bot accounts currently is. Lemmy feels like a village to me, while reddit is the dystopian hellscape from bladerunner.
