A perfect answer as far as I'm concerned! I wasn't necessarily worried about feeling like I wouldn't fit in, but it's still a healthy reminder regardless!
I'll keep sitting on that egg till the day I can face the answer with confidence :)
Best of wishes to you! I hope the "mixed success" you mentioned was still quite manageable?
Massive congratulations are in order for ya, mate! No doubt you'll find plenty joy in the future :) I'm personally still very new to this entire scene since switching to Lemmy and stumbling upon this lovely instance, and I am currently at the point of asking myself the big questions and figuring stuff out about myself. Learning plenty though, I must say! If you don't mind me asking, was it a tough decision for you to make, or did it make crystal clear sense to take the step?
