I joined a while back (after the rise of Mastodon following some edgelord's purchase of Twitter, although I had heard about both that and Lemmy long before), and I still probably won't be active on Lemmy until Reddit dies off; I joined this instance because it's the most relevant (nothing akin to Mathstodon, where I have the same username) and I was advised against just flocking to the main one.

I was most active on /r/learnmath and /r/Buttcoin and I might go to refugee communities related to both, and to things like /r/learnjavascript (where I was active until a few years ago, also as an answerer of questions) and /r/badmathematics.

I really miss /r/buttcoin I don't know what to do with myself now. Where will i get my daily dose of schadenfreude?

It's available on kbin and can be accessed (to some degree) via this very Lemmy instance: https://midwest.social/c/[email protected]

I did just learn that users on lemmy.world can't access that community until a patch is installed that allows connecting to kbin magazines with capital letters in their names, so we have a leg up on them.
