@[email protected] , you accidentally wrote your comment in a place just like that. See here: https://nord.pub/c/fediverse/p/127183/fediverse-is-there-any-platform-in-fediverse-where-individuals-can-join-groups-just-like-fac
This thing called PieFed or Lemmy is not the same as Mastodon. \@fediverse\@lemmy.world is not a username, itβs actually what you would call a group. On PieFed/Lemmy/Mbin groups are called communities, though. But indeed, do click the link above and browse the site that opens.
I linked through my instance, nord.pub, which is mainly meant for people from Nordic countries. If you prefer something else, try piefed.social, piefed.zip, or somesuch :) But of course you can also create an account on nord.pub regardless of where you are from. At least if you know English or some Nordic language. And English you do know!
But indeed: Do browse this thing. Join some communities (that is: groups) that you like. I enjoy PieFed a lot, and for me it has healed that tickle that youβre complaining about :)
