A week ago, I thought it would be quite some time before I'd spend more time in mastodon than twitter. And yet... I'm pretty sure I have today and that may continue.

Crazy.

@mmasnick even two days ago I thought the chance of me even bothering to check, never mind post in this place a few times a week would be low. And now I'm thinking the inverse.

Well, having followed you here after your recent mini-thread on Twitter, I'm just drafting off who you push onto my timeline to find accounts to follow. So from someone you've never met/will never meet, thanks! :)

@Pwnallthethings @mmasnick comparitavely speaking, the signal to noise ratio here, at least this early, is like 100:1, if not even better. no ads, no noise, no mass-scrolling political asshattery, no ads, no surprise-your-timeline-is-not-in-chronological-order-anymore ..
@Pwnallthethings @mmasnick (no ads twice, hah)
@Viss @Pwnallthethings you really don't miss those ads, huh?
@mmasnick @Pwnallthethings i stopped blocking accounts that pushed ads because it didnt scale anymore.

The need to rage-tweet is certainly much smaller.

@Viss @Pwnallthethings @mmasnick seriously, it’s so much less toxic over here. Feels like I almost have to put on mental armour and hold my breath when I go on Twitter now. Mastodon is a breath of fresh air. I like it!
