I live in Chicago on the North Side and work in higher education. Been in the city on and off for about 10 years with a gap in the middle when I lived in Asia. I came to Chicago for grad school and really liked the city and the Midwest more generally.
I have been pretty active in the Fediverse for the past year on Mastodon, Pixelfed, and Bookwyrm and decided to give this a try! I’m also trying Kbin as well but really am not understanding the whole Threads + Microblogging. Feels kind of like a having a phone taped to a toaster. Am I the only one who feels that way?
Any good, active communities you might recommend? Any tips to make the most out of Lemmy?
I like reading a lot. I’m into fantasy, sci-fi, philosophy, and religion. I’m really interested in environment, ecology, and climate issues. Always looking for new things to explore in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.
