It's social media made by the ultranerds who warned you about social media. You can sign up on any site and use every site. Mostly. Pick a site that's not run by assholes and you won't have to worry.
That's an incredibly confusing thing to say to someone who doesn't know what the fediverse is and wants to get involved. It raises so many questions, answers none of them and leaves.
If you can't trust yourself to skim a website and figure out if you want to be there, not being there is a fine decision.
