…maybe I should be around here more often… #TwitterExPat
Hello Mastodon! My name is Nemi, I’m interested in paganism, metal / rock music, tattoos and art history. I wrote my Master’s dissertation on Duncan Grant, and I like a good meme. My partner is a medieval re-enactor, and I have a houseplant addiction. Riddled with social anxiety but always looking to make new buddies ☺️ #introduction #newtomastodon #twitterexpat

The term #twitterexpat seems pretty accurate.

When I first moved to India it felt difficult at times but I had to tell myself “you did this to yourself. Figure it out.”

Good article, but in my case (as a #twitterexpat ): No, I'm not asking for a #Twitter replacement. I like #mastodon community and the platform as it is. If It grows even more, the better. The several features different than #Twitter and the promising expansion/implementation of even more characteristics requested by its users (#opensource) is what makes mastodon competitive in concept and experience, and I like it so far.

Twitter isn’t getting replaced by Mastodon, Truth Social, Hive, or Twitter 2.0

Twitter never fulfilled its promise. Don’t expect its current crop of replacements to, either.

A week in, I approach the common area. Beautiful graffiti covers the walls and friendly greetings are written in chalk on the cement.

A crowd gathers to watch as some take turns jumping in a huge, graceful jump rope. The music is good and loud.

I'm encouraged to take a turn. I stand at the edge, mimicking the motion of the rope with outstretched arms, trying to get the rhythm.

I jump!
