For how long have you been on the #Fediverse?

[jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net]

First insight: "Far longer than I originally thought" is quite popular

[taschenorakel@mastodon.green]

@herrorange One day longer than me.

@jwildeboer

[pankraz@freunde.ma-nic.de]

@jwildeboer Around 15 years

[nozika@mastodon.art]

@jwildeboer I'm totally new, I joined in February ! I never had an account on any other social media before, but so far I'm happy to be here.

[brezelradar@norden.social]

@jwildeboer 3.5 on mastodon, a lot longer if you count in a now defunct diaspora node...

[mortentorten@subversive.zone]

@jwildeboer hab gerade Mal auf der ersten Instanz nachgeschaut: 15. April 2022

[brianallbee@mastodon.social]

@jwildeboer Heh. I can't prove my answer because the server I started with has been decommissioned, but...

[me@social.k3can.us]

@jwildeboer
Looks like I've been on this self-hosted instance since 2024, and my original account on another server is from 2023, so about 3 years in total.

[lieschenrelleum@kolektiva.social]

@jwildeboer started several times, the first time was more than 4 years ago. Always quit after a short time because it was simultaneously boring and strangely hostile.

[lieschenrelleum@kolektiva.social]

@GOKUSHRM @jwildeboer yeah and it’s hard to find community here

[funcrunch@me.dm]

@jwildeboer

I initially got an account in 2016, but never used it. When I came back to the Fediverse in 2022 during the Great Twitter Migration, that instance was no longer active, so I got an account on mastodon.lol. When that instance went down I moved to my current instance, me.dm.

[derbruesseler@chaos.social]

@jwildeboer Since December 2018. Before that, I was on gnusocial and later on mastodon.cloud.

[derbruesseler@chaos.social]

@crossgolf_rebel @jwildeboer @bjoern I completely forgot about diaspora and identi.ca. So, I'm on the fediverse for over 15 years.

@jwildeboer

I joined the day muskrat got the keys to Twitter. I deleted my Twitter account and never looked back. The Fediverse is my only social media account. It’s comfy here.

[bodhipaksa@mastodon.scot]

@jwildeboer There's a bit of a bulge dating from when Musk began the process of acquiring Twitter.

[sinnlos@social.tchncs.de]

@jwildeboer just found out when looking up the date yesterday was my 4 anniversary…Yay

[jeniparsons@mstdn.social]

@jwildeboer four years today! Wouldn’t leave now

[josgeluk@mastodon.nl]

@jwildeboer I created an account in 2016 but didn't really use it until 2022 (voted 3-5 years)

[drwho@masto.hackers.town]

@jwildeboer @bjoern @crossgolf_rebel status.net was pretty nice. Could bridge Birbsite. Did not play well with nginx at all.
