    I’d consider myself an early adopter. You guys are late to the Lemmy party but I’m glad to see you here!

      How did you find out about lemmy? I’ve long since lost the knowledge to find new cool internet stuff.

        I believe it was on one of those “alternative to” websites. I felt Reddit was toxic 4 years ago and was looking for a new home. Found Lemmy, but it was a painfully low userbase back then. I ended up getting sucked back into Reddit for a couple of years. I’m so glad to see people actually using Lemmy now.

          New to Lemmy. Still taking a bit to get “used” to it (look & feel, navigation, type of community, etc) but enjoying it so far.

        Find not a large, but very nerdy community and follow it. You’ll find many more small and nerdy communities. And some of them will be focused on cool/odd internet places.

        For me, it was a linux-oriented youtube section, where I first find out about hackernews, r/internetisbeatiful and many FOSS and privacy-related subreddits.
