Oh wow. That’s great to hear! I have, since commenting, set up an account myself. App seems a little bit buggy but, I don’t plan on being on it a lot. I appreciate the interesting feedback from you and the others who took the time to reply.
The only issue I have with mastodon is the federation gets a bit janky (so does Lemmy tbh) but it’s more noticeable on mastodon. My main account is on autistics.life, which is federated with most instances except threads and the maga types, but very often I can’t see images on mastodon.social posts via my main account. In fact I can’t even see a lot of my older mastodon.social posts via my main account without viewing the post via my alt account and then account switching.
I’ve seen people say to avoid using mastodon.social as your main account.
I never really even thought to research that much. I scanned the different instances. I joined into privacysafe.social - it seemed fine. Being that I have only been on it for a few hours and have only followed 9 accounts, I can’t say I’ve noticed many issues regarding my feed at this point. Although I wish I could organize my feed by newest first. It doesn’t seem to be that way by default. I have just had a couple minor bugs with profile pages loading strangely.

You won’t notice issues until you get an alt account on a different instance. Often you’ll not see the full number of replies to a post for instance.
