I'm enjoying Mastodon a lot but I am also still on Twitter. Essentially, I am now on both the heroin AND the methadone.
@felicityhannah I think that'll be the same for a lot of people for a long time to come. 🤷🏼‍♂️😆
@felicityhannah like many of us I guess! My particular peeve at the moment is too much requoting what’s going on in Twitter… since I read that there. Fine if it’s starting a discussion. Not if a simple repeat/crosspost
@felicityhannah this is exactly the vibe. Was feeling very smug yesterday for being able to see a way out of my Twitter addiction, until I remembered exactly what that way out entails…
@felicityhannah hah… that’s the truth (he says bringing multiple accounts over)
@felicityhannah yep, less and less on the other these days, it's my back-up, this is now my main social. Still waiting on some to fly the nest
@felicityhannah right but isn't the heroin starting to wear off?
@alisca yes, undeniably
@felicityhannah going back in and you can feel the toxicity crawling up your arms....
@felicityhannah
Interesting. I'm taking uppers and downers at the same time :-)

@felicityhannah

Me too. Prefer it here now though, so will probably ditch the bird for good sometime soon.

@felicityhannah I still hang on the Bluebird even though I am also here on Mastodon & now Tribel! Not leaving the Bluebird til I gotta pay, cause I still like Twitter!
@MelissaFunGirl83 @felicityhannah what’s tribal like? I intended to do both but got here and liked it too much to go again 🙃
@juliacreatesjoy @felicityhannah Tribel is cool too easy to use it doesn't freeze or 505 like Mastodon does on occasion
@felicityhannah
Elephant and bird. What's next.
@felicityhannah yes me too, you've really got to admire @stephenfry for going cold turkey from the other place in such a definitive way
@felicityhannah I think most of us are but I'm glad to see lots of journalists making the jump. I was worried I was going to use the newsfeed element but doesn't look like that's going to be the case.
@felicityhannah not sure if an "ones and upper and ones a downer" joke would be accurate for that setup but I would like to think it is hahaha
@felicityhannah Same here! I'm not sure if I'm platform flirting or cheating!
@felicityhannah even the guy who runs the .uk server said he was still using both this morning in an interview on Times Radio! 👏🤣
@felicityhannah I am doing exactly the same. It should make us feel balanced out right? Except I just feel more stressed and disorientated. I might need another prescription entirely.
@felicityhannah same … im tempted to copy paste posts … cant let go of Twitter yet yet
@felicityhannah can't use Twitter no more serious laggy scrolling issue for me ain't got no clue why
@felicityhannah Nothing a few minutes of doom scrolling through the nasty boy's feed can't fix.
@felicityhannah Me too, and all it costs me is large portions of my time and mental health...
@felicityhannah We call it masthodone. It seems to work...
@felicityhannah We're all not quite at the point where we can 100% ditch birdsite. However the more people set up over here the less time we all spend over there, which is just massively better for our collective mental health.
@felicityhannah my second day clean of Tw*youknowhwo.
@felicityhannah strikes me as the sensible thing to do whilst we see what happens to Twitter but this place is a lot better for my blood pressure.
@felicityhannah I’ve not felt the need to go on the Dead Bird site today. I’ve gained some followers to engage with. I’ve found excellent people to follow. I don’t miss the aggro or the adds!
@felicityhannah I went cold turkey, still twitching a bit
@felicityhannah lets say currently having adverse effect on total screentime...still not ready to go full cold (blue) turkey
@felicityhannah yes, this could be a problem 
@felicityhannah Same. A bit scared to make that final jump …..
@felicityhannah wean yourself off one..mastodon is better- its got @stephenfry in it.
@felicityhannah Exactly this . It’s fuelling my addiction 😂
@felicityhannah
Me: I spend too much time on Twitter
Also me: I'll just give this Mastodon thing a try at the same time...
@felicityhannah - me too! I feel as though I have a split personality!
@felicityhannah Mastodon's more ibogaine than methadone
@felicityhannah Me too! There I was trying to wean myself off Twitter and have an actual real world life, only to find I'm now double dosing 
Don't be surprised if people come along and say “high”…
@felicityhannah I'm the same, largely staying on Twitter out of curiosity now.
