Qasim Rashid, Esq.Nov 29, 2022

Today is my 1 month anniversary of signing up for Mastodon. A few observations—after spending 13+ years on Twitter:

•The Mastodon community is kinder & more focused on lifting one another up than tearing down.

•Mastodon is learning from Twitter's mistakes by including accessibility options, incorporating an edit button, & not centralizing everything

•Engagement is not dependent on clickbait or outrage, but genuine positive content.

None of the above are absolutes, but overall, glad I'm here.

@QasimRashid Thanks! I've been on for nearly two weeks and would agree with these.

I want to switch my professional Twitter account over at some point, and am paying a lot of attention to which industries are on here. Journalists, techies, academics, and healthcare/medical professionals appear to be taking off. In my industry of FinTech startups, not so much ... but I know things are changing quickly and am watching.
