For how long have you been on the #Fediverse?

[kaliah@dragonscave.space]

@jwildeboer almost exactly 3.5 years.

[tuuktuuk@piipitin.fi]

@jwildeboer

Apparently since 17.2.2025: https://feddit.org/u/tuuktuuk

A little over a year.

[davep@infosec.exchange]

@jwildeboer In my 10th year!

[tommi@pan.rent]

@jwildeboer I have been instance-hopping for my first couple of years. I think the first account I ever had is now dead, but @xplosionmind@mastodon.uno and @tommi@mastodon.uno are still there! Crazy!

EDIT: woah I found @xplosionmind@mastodon.online

@Netscape Navigator It's "too much", not "to much". That's a fact you can put in that same bag of yours

[nachtet@norden.social]

@jwildeboer I had to check - 4 years THIS month! 🥰

@rayotron @NetscapeNavigator @jwildeboer
I think the poll was meant to count in whole years of 365 days each.
I've joined the Fediverse in August 2020 which is more than 5 years, therefore I didn't pick the option "3-5 years".

[eco_amandine@mastodon.cr]

@jwildeboer I created an account about 4 years ago. At the time I though it was too slow and didn't get it. Then I went to another social network (like Mastodon but smaller, it didn't federated with Mastodon, I can't remember its name now). Then I came back in November 2022, but this time with some friends from Twitter. Some of them explained me how this place works and I met more people afterwards. It has been better.

@jwildeboer Three years and change on this instance; originally on mastodon.social since August 2021, but way back, I created a now long-lost account on identi.ca in September 2010.

[polarbirke@indieweb.social]

@jwildeboer Funny you‘d say that. I just found https://mastodon.social/@polarbirke which apparently I registered in 2018 and then completely forgot about.

[wim_v12e@tilde.zone]

@jwildeboer today it's nine years, three weeks and one day since my first post on octodon.

(For a short time before that I was on a different instance, social.nasqueron.org if memory serves.)

[tragivictoria@mastodon.catgirl.cloud]

@jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net Since 2022, with a couple of breaks here and there

[txt_file@chaos.social]

@jwildeboer when I joined it wasn't called fediverse and mastodon didn't exist.

[nighten@hi.nighten.fr]

@Ypsilenna@mastodon.green @jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net 2017 for me too actually! I wish I still had the same account it would look prestigious

[taschenorakel@mastodon.green]

@jwildeboer This comment simply shall bump the number of comments past the evil number.

[osma@mas.to]

Is it your reach, or only 6% growth in the past year? That can't be enough to net positive.
@jwildeboer

[asm@mstdn.party]

@jwildeboer just new here...

[f3715h@rubber.social]

@jwildeboer I should've come here after #tumbr decided to pirge #NSFW content!
