How familiar were you with the Fediverse before coming here? (kbin.social)

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 was aware of Mastodon and LibreTube, but didn't associate them with the "Fediverse", nor had any real grasp on what the Fediverse was.

My displeasure with Reddit led me to research the alternatives and do a deep dive down the rabbit hole.
