So… welcome to new users in the #Fediverse network!
If you are exploring the fediverse through the #Mastodon software, feel free to explore other platforms like #Streams #Calckey #Hubzilla #Friendica #Akkoma to mention a few, for your usual “status updates” (and more) UI/UX.
If you want a platform more focused on photos and images, then there is #Pixelfed. Or, you want bookshelves and tracking what you've read, or leaving #book reviews, there is #BookWyrm.
But the beauty of it all, all of these are connected to the fediverse. You can follow any user regardless of which software they are using; AND regardless which server (domain name) they signed-up for.
For example, my accounts are:
* @youronlyone - a Mastodon instance https://c.im
* @youronlyone@calckey.social - a Calckey instance https://calckey.social
* @youronlyone@pixelfed.social - a Pixelfed instance https://pixelfed.social
* @youronlyone@c.wtf - a #Rebased #Pleroma instance https://c.wtf
* @youronlyone@p.lu - a #PeerTube instance https://p.lu
* @youronlyone@bookwyrm.social - a BookWyrm instance https://bookwyrm.social
Note: You rarely need an account in other instances. I have other accounts because (1) I like to test; and (2) I use them for different purposes.
We even have fediverse #groups hosted at https://chirp.social and https://a.gup.pe You can follow any group from your existing fediverse account and participate.

Again, welcome! Don't forget to post your #intro / #introduction and update your profile and tag it with #fedi22!
