@makyo I'm personally a little wary, because their core userbase exploded from outside social media, and via their local timeline they can be pretty insular. They seemed slower to adapt to general Mastodon genuineness, with some even begrudging the federated nature of the Fediverse.
On the other paw, they're nowhere near as walled off as Awoo is, so you can see almost all of the Fediverse from there like a normal instance.
@makyo btw, if you want to peek into an instance's public timeline without committing to making an account, several clients can do that, as well as this web tool: https://dueringa.github.io/mastodonviewer/
