Hello! I noticed that the original Mastodon discovery thread got deleted, so I decided to create another one.
I’ll start. I’m @darylsun@social.lol, and my interests include open-source software, shounen anime, cozy videogames, and writing.
In the replies, please include your Mastodon handle(s) and any interests. Thank you!
I am @ludrol@qoto.org but i don’t really get the idea behind mastodon/twitter/microbloging
Like is it for news sites? Knowing what someone ate for breakfast? Fanart? Certainly there was a lot of porn (thanks devs for filter by tag feature)
I never did Twitter so can’t say what’s different about Mastodon. But I have two accounts there for two separate main interests, crafting and gamedev.
On both of those accounts it’s just a nice way to see what other people are up to within those topics, share my own projects, and generally meet new people and get into conversations around our shared areas of interest.
You can do that here on Lemmy too of course, this just lends itself better to longer in-depth discussions while Mastodon is better for more casual chatter.
I like them both and am happy with my life choices 😄
