If so, how’d you hear about lemmy?

It feels like everyone here came from reddit but I’m curious if anyone found lemmy organically

    Kinda sorta. This specific account I opened after the reddit API thing.

    I have other Lemmy and broader Fediverse accounts I opened separate from any reddit issues. This is just my active one that is basically my replacement for reddit.

    Looking at my password vault history, it looks like my first Fediverse account was probably Friendica. I remember I was looking for an alternative to Facebook. I didn’t think Google+ was going to last, nor did I really want to use another Google platform. I used Ello more at the time, which isn’t based on ActivityPub protocol. Ello never did gain critical momentum and fully closed down within the last year or two. I kept up some interaction with it all the way to the end.
