 O> I never heard of Lemmy.  I thought "the conversation" is on  
 O> FTN's!  :D

I have actually been more active in conversation on fsxNet than Lemmy, but really they pair well together IMO! :)

 O> Mastadon is too bloated in my opinion.

I had (grudgingly) gotten on Twitter and built a nice list of people to follow (and as importantly, a giant block list), and then many people bailed for Mastodon at the same time I was done with Twitter, so I was able to start off with a pretty good feed of posts when I joined Mastodon.  And basically since I was leaving Twitter, Mastodon being loaded with similar functionality seemed reasonable enough.

 O> Element is as far I would take the federated experience.

I haven't used Element, it looks like it is for one on one communication, or group messaging with contacts?  Looks nice, will have to learn more about it.  Cool to see, and compare, these different styles of communication systems.
