I had (have) a Mastodon account, but I didn’t put in the time and effort to understand the fediverse, so it’s just been sitting there. Now, with kbin and lemmy I see the potential and I’m off to explore!
I also like the fact that ‘fediverse’ is pronounced very similar to ‘Faits Divers’. Litterally ‘miscellaneous facts’, but is used for smaller news items, anecdotes, tidbits of information, … which seems very appropriate.
Still feeling the effects of the Chip Shortage of 2020-2022. They are still making a lot of pi’s, but they have a huge backlog to work away. Large contracts get priority over distributors, unfortunately, so they are very hard to find.
