    Already 27K? Wow!

    Hello everyone, @AvaddonLFC here. My displayed username, all the way down to the emojis, is the same as my Reddit username. I’ve been very active here on the last 5 days or so, trying to maintain quite a few communities and get familiar with all this fediverse stuff. I’m glad to be here and I LOVE the atmosphere you’ve all been creating on Lemmy! I live in NYC even though I’m not from there, and I smoke a lot of weed, and I’m a dude.

    That was the most introduction I could do. Sorry if it wasn’t enough. Lol

      Join the club fam. Honestly its mostly like reddit! You’ll slowly get the hang of federated.

      Just know the default post sort is “active” which you might want to change to hot or new. Hot has a bug so it doesn’t update as much as it should

    So, hey! I’m an internet person that’s floated around etherspace awhile, not that long, but at least long enough that I remember ol’ forums and stuff like StumbleUpon.

    I’m into some webcomics and really enjoy reading, but I’m also really bad/good about both getting a bunch of books & making lists of books to read and just kind of sporadically reading some of them. I dabble in a lot more, but this is me trying to keep it brief, so I’m stopping here.

    Wait a sec, I’m getting some deja vu… 😜

    I jest, it’s early days, there’s a ton of these around!
