If so, how'd you hear about lemmy?

It feels like everyone here came from reddit but I'm curious if anyone found lemmy organically

Me! I'm new to social media in general, decided to engage with it earlier this year by looking up lists of social media sites and then joined the ones I could find that I vibed with!

Lemmy is def substantially higher quality content, commentary, and community as a whole compared to all the other popular social media I use. You made the right choice!!

I'm on too many to list here, but here's a few, I'm on Tumblr where I post my art, Cara, and Newgrounds

It's odd to me to see Newgrounds in a list of social media. I thought it was more of an indie game/animation-hosting platform, lol
