@me_the_fl00f @hankg @darnell @cstross yes, you’re right. The join date represents the account creation date and not the date the user first joined the fediverse. For example my account on Flipboard.social says I joined in February 2923 but I originally joined on mastodon,social in Nov 2022 and the redirected my account to Flipboard.social when we started our instance. This is interesting and raises a good question on how we should handle this.
