This question is especially for people who have joined in the last week. Have you used other fediverse platforms or is this your first time really using one? What do you think of it so far? Are you aware that you can comment on Lemmy posts with a Mastodon account?
I feel you. What’s cool though is to see the growth over the last few days. It’s nice that here are a lot of people sick and tired of these giant tech companies and their terrible behavior. I think treating it the way you’re describing is fine enough.
