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?

Yes. Actually made this account today, and here are my first impressions: The learning curve is existent, and likely the largest problem with mass adoption. The way communities work is cool, but not easily explained to end users. But now that i see how it works, i like it better. Now we just need the content and community to thrive.

Can you explain it to me please? Lol

Basically all the content is mirrored on each instance. So you can create an account on any instance, and join communities hosted on any other instance.

The only exception is it seems like some instances are blocking each other
