Spanish guy, who likes open source software and has just discovered the fediverse (as of 28th of April, 2022). I like video games, and indie and retro music. I’m a student. I’m officially diagnosed with ADHD and ASD since January, 2023.

America is a continent and Americans are people from that continent (Canadians, Usonians, Mexicans, Cubans, Argentinians, Brazilians...)

I don't like politics precisely because of polarization and extremists. My first experience in the fediverse wasn't good either. Russian invasion to Ukraine happened two months before, Elon Musk stated his intentions to buy Twitter, and I joined a random Mastodon instance. Guess what? Tankies supporting and defending Russia and anything related to communism.

Luckily, I discovered that there are a lot of more Mastodon and Lemmy servers, and I'm in those that I can call "home".

It's obvious that I don't want to see far-right or alt-right content while I can. But I don't want to see tankie or far-left content either. Like someone said in this post, discussing with a commie and disagreeing, even being in the left political spectrum, makes you a "fascist" or something similar.

I can't find some of those equivalents under the search tool of kbin, neither on sopuli.

After a couple of months doing photosynthesis, my ADHD medication finally decided to allow me to study this morning. But no more than 90 minutes. Now I'm again in my endless scrolling and doing nothing productive.

Besides that, I'm trying to be more active in kbin.social / lemmy instances to create more content through comments or post and engage, knowing the inevitable doom from Reddit (although I have an user on sopuli since last year).

It'll happen, but not as soon as we think. First, war needs to end, and the only way to end is with Russia returning the occupied territories to Ukraine, including Crimea.

I think that Ukraine accession into UE will happen earlier than accession into NATO. And I don't think that Orban, biggest Putin's puppet after Lukashenko, is willing to allow Ukraine into NATO.

I don't remember. First of all, I knew about fediverse thanks to Elon Musk, when he decided to buy Twitter on April last year. So, I went to Mastodon (my first instance was a tankie one, by the way, and I didn't notice it on first sight). Afterwards, I was learning more about fediverse services, like Pixelfed, PeerTube, Lemmy and others. So, I've a Lemmy user since the 28th of April, 2022. But I've also a kbin.social user since yesterday.

I think these reddit news had nothing to do with my decision to create an user on Lemmy. But they do have everything to do with my decision to be more active here.
