10/11/22: My first Fediverse adventure [a Mastodon Instance].
20/5/24: Created this new instance account [loma.ml
] today, to evaluate its potential viability over my current Friendica instance [libranet.de
] & Masto [infosec.exchange
] for my daily fediversing. 23/5/24: Yep, loma.ml
is my new daily Fedi.
1/8/24: On any given day, I’ll be fediversing-about either in Friendica (msdropbear42@loma.ml) or Mastodon (MsDropbear425@infosec.exchange). My aus.social & anonsys.net [Masto & Friendica, respectively] accounts remain alive, but dormant til further notice.

@melroy @jerry Yes, thanks, i know that from Jerry’s earlier post, but there’s no point me doing that unless & until i find the answer to my preceding post’s question. There’s no point signing up for an account that i would instantly delete again if only then i discovered it cannot do what i asked. I’d rather get the answer first.
@jerry@fedia.io Hi again Jerry. I’m still mulling over the “will i, won’t i” question, & realised a good way to help me decide conclusively. Having begun belatedly in the fediverse [late 2022] in Masto, then later experimenting with a couple of #Firefish instances, & now #Friendica, the UI advantages of those latter two over Masto is a big thing keeping me in Friendica rather than returning to Masto. Specifically, i do not want to give up the convenience of a UI that gives users iconised options for post formatting, & a preview function.
Does #mbin / #Fedia have that? If no, then i can give up the Fedia idea now. If yes, then i’d like to open an account there pls.
@jerry@fedia.io Fair enough. Any “decision” i end up making on this is a low-priority thing, but from my initial looking at your instance the other night, i suspect i’m prolly leaning towards not bothering… not as any slight against your fine work, but simply coz i’m not sure that i like the UI & its tools [compared to Friendica & even Masto]. Also, given that as a lot of my posts, & fav interlocutors’ posts, regard #AusPol, my initial keyword search for that #hashtag there were rather underwhelming.
Being a slow peep, & also not previously paying any attention to #kbin / #mbin til last week, i then “discovered” Fedia.io
[having no idea at all it was another of your babies]. As i read thru the various admin info for users pages, i thought “hey, this all seems quite familiar, has someone copied Jerry’s words from `infosec.exchange’?” Then, soon after, i realised my ignorance. I’ve not yet tried to sign up coz i still dunno if i “need” it, alongside / instead of my existing #Friendica & Masto accounts, but clearly based on your post here, if i do later decide to try it, i’ll need to remember this new status.

@jerry Oh goodness, just as i thought i could close this book i suddenly discover the author added another chapter, heehee. T/y… so now i suppose i need to begin researching that new option. 😊
