Thanks! I'm wondering if I could possibly have as much to say about the other platforms as I do about Mastodon, but guess I won't know until I try eh?

Thank you also for sharing your experience with choosing Mastodon. It's so interesting how people find it suitable or not for them, and how they choose their instances. I followed a friend to fandom.ink and found the other two through directories and by interest. I should add those links to the post, in fact, since they're good potential resources for people.
