Hey, new Mastodonians-- I'm curious what happened over on the birdcage that led to this new influx of users. Was there one definitive event?
@SuzanEraslan I don't think it's been an event. I think it's just been a slow realization that birdy management is is not focused on the people who use it, but focused on the corps/parties who want to use it "reach" the people who use it. Major turn off. My block list over there is effing huge now
@rockmastermike Yeah, that makes sense. I've gone back over a few times since making the switch, and there's so much ADVERTISING. And even the non-promoted, non-corporate tweets feel so much like people are just Building Their Personal Brand. It's like quirky LinkedIn full of Nazis.
