@atomicpoet the
#BirdSite is/was important for
#BeyondExtremeEnergy and my own account to occasionally have information or opinion directly reach gov officials who do their own social media - no other useful purpose - my bird experience evolved thus: got an account to scream at
#CheeseHead; started following
#Baltimore folks, local journalists, politicians at all levels, climate and energy, and folks not like me (iβm an old white dude). But it devolved into a climate activist bubble and I wasted my time promoting climate activist tweets to other climate activists. I never joined
#MetaFaceVerse so the birdsite was my first social media foray. Iβm encouraging
#BXE to leave the
#BirdSite and
#MetaFaceVerse for the
#Fediverse, but as for myself, this feels like a
#HappyPlaceβtysm to everyone making it happen
