I haven’t enjoyed social media this much in probably 8 years. I’d forgotten what it was like to see people talking positively about the creative work they’re engaged in without a constant stream of noise, anger, and drama.
@dandean It's pretty dang nice, isn't it?

@dandean Seriously! I follow hashtags and make lists that give me practically the perfect social feed I crave. I actually feel like a better, more informed, and intellectually stimulated person now.

On THAT site, I felt assaulted from all sides on what I needed to be angry about. It was exhausting and yet so addictive.

@dandean I've been watching the Indieweb and Fediverse from the outside for a while now, wanting to be a part but not knowing where to start.

It's been fun so far! Something about it makes reaching out to folks more fun again. Maybe not feeling like I'm talking to advertisements?

@dandean

Lovely, isn't it. So refreshing.
