Holy shit. How did you get to know about Lemmy and why did you join?
Not OP but reddit and the piracy subreddit
At the time I knew what the fediverse was and I was using Mastodon quite consistently, and I was waiting for a federated alternative to reddit. Raddle at the time was already a thing, but federation was not on their roadmap.
As per how I found it... here's a comment from four years ago :)
Instance admins can change literally any of that information in the database. There's a user whose account info says she's been on lemmy for a century.
There's nothing to stop them changing the creation date though
Probably a federation bug
huh I'm close
