I know it may be a lot of users’ first time using something that is decentralized like this. As I’ve been a Fediverse user for some time, I had been waiting for a big migration like this to happen as it usually happens with Twitter every now and again. Welcome to Fedi, hope you enjoy your stay!
I think having a smaller community helps with this, at least for me. There’s fewer users, so new content and comments get posted less frequently, so less urge to scroll and find new stuff.
