Our legacy checkmark for @yubanetfire has disappeared in a puff of smoke on 4/20. The irony. #GladToBeHere
Actually, I'm enjoying my mastodon feed Quite A Lot these days (tho I still miss certain folks from that other place whose absence leaves large gaps in my thinking). But I don't tend to post much. Maybe that's okay. Still #GladToBeHere (not there).
@Paul__Frost you made me look for it and... OMG! Things are worse down there than I thought. Glad I am here now. #musk #twitter #twitterexodus #gladtobehere
@athelas1001 Well, thanks so much for the warm welcome. I look forward to my journey here. It already is proving to be much better than the algorithm based social platforms I've left behind.

Can we pre-emptively ban Elon from Mastodon? The last 2 days have made this place more & more like what I used Twitter for (mostly to follow news, analysis, & social justice work) & the conversations hate just been so much more interesting (with less BP elevation). #gladtobehere

@JenWojcik @steveumstead @tuckerteague You are absolutely right! This feels more organic, like how the Internet used to feel. Like webrings and chatrooms and geocities!. Twitter used to feel like this in the very beginning. Smaller connections with people of common interests. I'm loving it! (Plus I'm a nerd and I created a server just to see if I could and now I feel like I own tiny portion of the #Fediverse). #NerdsForTheWin #GladToBeHere
So I have to confess. I am not exclusive with mastodon. I’m still on the bird app at least once a day. And substack. I dabble with Tribel. I haven’t tried my new postnews account. I am neglecting my Instagram account but do pop onto linked in.
Out of all of this this new chaos and cross posting, I’m beginning to love the fresh voices and experimentation I am seeing, especially on #mastodon and substack.

This could be the start of a beautiful relationship… #gladtobehere
