‘If you’re reading this, chances are that you’ve just signed up for Mastodon. Or, perhaps you’re thinking about trying it out, or have at least heard other people mention it. There are many guides out…’
Tbh, I tried Mastodon when everyone was raving about it, and even with a guide I couldn’t make sense of it.
Lemmy is a little bit confusing to begin with as I’m not overly familiar with the fediverse, but at least it’s easy to get the hang of if you’ve ever used Reddit. Mastodon seemed like a nightmare to navigate, but maybe it’s easier now, I don’t know.
Signing up is a piece of cake - this guide just seems to include steps that most users won’t need, for some reason.
