    As someone who has been exploring the Fediverse for about 2 weeks, it’s been an overall good experience. I’ve been trying to use it instead of Reddit as much as possible, but it’s also apparent that there’s a lot less content.

    I hope that the verse will continue to grow and that it will solve the content problem.

    Otherwise the clients feel like a breath of fresh air and less enshittified than Reddit…

    edit: Also the first comment talking about experiences that are just too jarring. I haven’t encountered anything like that but maybe I am just a sweet summer child.

      Welcome! I’ve seen you started two nord instances already. More instances are always a good thing. But I wonder, why did you start two very similar instances?

        The first one was my an experimental instance and I will shut it down soon. Initially I planned to migrate the database to new hosting but I also regretted using a domain that was essentially a reference to reddit (.red). So I decided to start clean on another domain while it was only me who used it for a limited time.
