@davidallengreen I’ve didn’t knew you on Tweeter, but due to my interest in politics I have found you here. And I’m from recent wave of tweeter escapees.

@davidallengreen people could be in groups 1 and 3 if they left Twitter recently. I assume 3 implies no Twitter following history.
Show threadtheothertomNov 24, 2022
@rich @davidallengreen I picked 3, despite previously following on Twitter. I've been unfollowing people there as I find them here, partly to avoid any duplication, and partly to help the person I'm following judge the split of followers. Not sure if that's and edge-case though.

Came over but still on Twitter.
TBH I don't notice much different on there so far but then I'm in the nobody gives a sh*t what I think category.

@davidallengreen I thought it might be helpful for you to know that I can’t read ALL of the wording in each option. E.g.

”Followed me on Twitter, c…” “Followed me on Twitter, b…”

I don’t know if there is a way to expand the options.

So I don’t know exactly what I have voted for!

You were RTd regularly on birdsite, followed you here.

Show threadPaul G's PhotosNov 24, 2022

@davidallengreen I'm now only following you on here. My plan is to phase out Twitter altogether.

Currently there's a few news people (e.g. Pippa Crear) on there who haven't moved across so I'm keeping an eye on it just not as frequently.

@ottocrat @davidallengreen are you saying you were just secretly following David offline before now 🤨
Show threadAllybobbleNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen followed on twitter, closed twitter account the day the sale went through. Found you when you arrived here.
Show threadAdrian FlackNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen I’ve followed you from way back in the Jack Of Kent days and I’m glad to see you over here now
Show threadMatthew TaylorNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen very much 1. Came here from the bird site. At the moment just auto posting what I post there. Seeing how things go - and whether at some point I move across here permanently.
Show threadjohncNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen I'm not sure "mastodon only" captures the reality as I regularly read your stuff on Twitter via retweets. Seemed a good time to formalise the relationship here.

New to Mastodon, was Twitter and picked up your posts on my Mastodon timeline.

@davidallengreen That is to say, I got here about 10m before you did and followed once you arrived :)

had no idea you were on twitter, follow on mastodon

@davidallengreen How do mastadon polls do their maths? The first one you did the final figures added up to about 70 and this one currently makes 101. The both claimed to be %ages???

@davidallengreen Former Twitter follower until I was ejected from the Hellsite some time ago, for calling a bad person a bad word. On reflection it was worth it.
Show threadirishoutsiderNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen I followed on and off on Twitter depending on how much political news I wanted in feed. More inclined to follow/discuss here expecting threads to be more civil with fediblock on the table
Show threadnesaroNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen I selected only mastodon as I don't have a twitter account. However I follow your blog via rss which is what I actually value the most
Show threadPaul MacMahonNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen Used to follow you on twitter but didn't enjoy the comments of a lot of people who replied to you there. So far, so good over here ...
Show threadChris H #ChoirsForClimateNov 24, 2022
@davidallengreen I knew of you on Twitter but didn't follow you there because I almost always saw your post as retweets anyway!

@davidallengreen I hit the wrong one of course. That sums up my relationship with tech. 🙄

@davidallengreen

Saw your stuff semi-regularly on Twitter but wasn't that fussed.

The lack of content and opinions on Mastodon made following you a more attractive option and you have repaid my trust. 😀
