I love that Mastodon reminds me to add alt text. I love how easy it is to add content warnings or mark things as sensitive. I also love that posts are called toots. It’s just really nice here.
@dramypsyd questions, am new. what prompts you to follow someone? Why not follow all the people that follow you? I’m not asking g you to follow me, I just want to know why you wouldn’t? I thought maybe this space would be less like middle school but it doesn’t seem to be? You are very active posting and that’s why I wanted to ask you.
@birdblahblah I’m following slowly, I used to follow everyone who followed me and got overwhelmed by my timeline. I don’t expect anyone to follow me but I try to be helpful. I’ve also had an influx of almost 1k followers in less than a week so it’s been a lot lol
@dramypsyd fair! Just curious, I don’t understand how all that works. Like I always read journast Aaron Rupar, everyday, he never just appeared in my timeline. On the other site. That never made sense unless that was the point, make it wonkier, charge more, algorithm control. This experience so far seems more intimate, smaller void?
