You will occassionally see some people from other platforms, like mastodon, commenting or posting here. But Lemmy isn't the most compatible one, so you probably won't see microblogs and such. If you want to see microblogs as well, use mbin (kbin fork). It is a mix of Lemmy and Mastodon. You can micro blog and comment on magazines (communities in the mbin/kbin platform) that way.
I especially am thinking of self hosting mbin because I do want to see some microblogs from some users.
Also I welcome you to Lemmy and the Fediverse. Good thing you didn't choose lemmy.world or lemmy.ml
So I know there's some drama with lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. I'm passingly familiar with the .ml stuff (that they have a large and vocal population of tankies and red-fash types), but what's the deal with lemmy.world?
It is in my opinion too big to join now as a new user, I think there are some issues with moderation also.
Fediverse needs to scale horizontally so it is bad idea to join the largest server.
Afaik they're basically banning whoever and whenever they please
That is probably true for all instances
In a sense, yes. But many people disagree specifically with what and why .world is banning.
