learned more in few weeks than in few years in other social media - eviltoast

I have learned more in the few weeks about self hosting, rust, flutter and other things in lemmy, mastodon and fediverse than in the last few years in Reddit and other social media. Maybe learned more in hacker news. It’s awesome here and love the people here who are wonderful and knowledgeable and teach me patiently without any prejudice. Thanks everyone who make this awesome place.

      I joined lemmy.world, because that’s the first one I came across. But now I can see the posts from many instances using voyager and Memmy. Now you can go and join any instance with interest you. That’s the beauty of it.
