Yeah it feels fun. For me it's the only time I've actually enjoyed being involved in social media and I'm getting really into it lol. I've even started making memes!
Same, I'm obsessed! I never posted or commented at all, now I mod 2 small communities lol. I didn't even make memes until the other day, this is like my 5th one.
Just popping in to say I don't think lemmy.ml ever defederated from lemmy.world, they just had issues sending info to each other during the really busy weekend due to all the new users. They're definitely federated now, just checked their instance list at the bottom of the page.
I personally blocked the Beehaw communities I used to be in before they defederated because the only people who'd see and be able to interact with my posts and comments would be other lemmy.world users and it would be like a weird little echo chamber.
No idea if Beehaw will federate again, I guess we'll just have to wait and see but there's a lot out there in the mean time. And if you really want to join in Beehaw you can always make an account there.
