I’m genuinely excited to be microblogging on a platform not infested with Nazis. It‘s a fresh start; a vast landscape is at my feet to shape as I see fit. So much love to @Lexialex for taking the leap! I hope others follow suit, and we cultivate a positive experience on Mastodon. 😊
@bstacey Thank you so much! That's a great idea. It's always daunting to start fresh in any social media platform.
Hi, Web. Welcome! @Lexialex post made me join Mastodon. It feels good being here :)
@lpdesa Ditto! It's scary to try something new and unfamiliar, but I'm getting the hang of this. Feels refreshing to not be bombarded with adverts and the constant bullying that dominated my Twitter feed even after muting/blocking countless accounts.
@webistrying
I know, right? Plus - bots, at least the ones I have seen, are clearly described as such. V refreshing! :)
@webistrying @Lexialex Hello! I hope you like it here (I've been around since last April and have found it pretty genial).
I encourage you to write a quick post about yourself and your interests and tag it #introductions --- that seems to be a pretty good way to meet new and interesting people! (Ordinary text isn't searchable on Mastodon, but hashtags are.)
