I am very new to the fediverse, and .ml was the second instance I tried as I was feeling things out. I was not having a good experience at all. I saw so much content that didn’t sit well with me, and the discourse made me never want to comment. It’s validating to hear it’s not just me.

No matter their age, if they’re good people they’ll be excited to teach you. Making friends definitely gets a bit weird as we get older, but I think there’s a lot of value in being able to relate to and appreciate people in different age groups. I hope if you end up going that you have a great time!

It’s going pretty well! I’m recovering from a surgery I had last month, and recovery has been slow going. I’ve wanted a kayak for years, and as a treat for getting through this I picked up my brand new sit-in this evening. I can’t wait to be able to take it out!
