Well—I’ve been here for over 12 years (maybe 15? Is that even possible?), though unfortunately, there’s no easy way to check that.

I used to be a die-hard Twitter user and kept an eye out for alternatives. Diaspora was being discussed in "my community" back then—that’s how I ended up here. I can’t quite explain it; I’ve had long periods of inactivity, and a lot of people have disappeared.

But there’s something "calm" and reliable about it. I enjoy being here, even if I’m not around constantly.

That’s it in a nutshell.

And what about you???

I read about it in a US computer magazine and found it interesting. I started looking around in late 2012 and eventually ended up at podmob.net. Since there were recurring issues there, I created a backup account at Ruhrspora*** in late **2013. That quickly became my main account. I’ve also been on Geraspora*** since the summer of **2014, and my time with podmob.net came to an end in December 2015. After experimenting with Friendica, and following the closure of Ruhrspora* and other issues, I’ve become firmly established on Geraspora*.
