Mine was either mastodon or matrix. I got into both at the same time. What are some other fediverse sites for beginners?

I joined Mastodon in...either late 2016 or early 2017? And really enjoyed it but couldn't find enough people to follow and not enough people I knew tried it out so I fell off of it. Came back some number of months before the big Twitter exodus so I at least got to see it in its normal calm state before that. I've tried out various fedi platforms since then.

Kinda the same here. Tried it our early, but it was kinda dead so I left. Then Twitter banned me for setting my profile name to Elon Musk, so I gave it another try and there's all kinds of activity now. Really like it.
