There are people on this platform who want no politics.
We didn’t move over from Twitter to talk about kittens everyday.
We needed a place to carry on our work. To carry on fighting injustice, racism, misogyny, antisemitism and anti-LGBTQ hate. Because these things are important no matter what platform we are using. That was the whole point of our #twittermigration
We don’t have the privilege to be quiet.
@SpockResists I keep trying with Mastodon. But I can't get any traction here :(
@ChristineDantz Just keep engaging Christine. Always remember that every single voice is important. Your voice here is important. Find accounts you want to follow and reply to them. It’s the same as Twitter in that the more you engage, the more traction you will see my friend. πŸ––πŸ––πŸ–πŸ––πŸ–
@SpockResists Thank you. I spent years building my profile on Twitter, just for the #ChefTwit to destroy it :( #DemocracyMatters #NoNazisHere
@ChristineDantz We all did. My account on Twitter is very well known. But it wasn’t at first. I had to build the account in the first place. I’m enjoying doing that again. It’s nice. πŸ––πŸ––πŸ––β€οΈ
@SpockResists @ChristineDantz It is nice. Rebuilding can also be expanding, reaching people I never saw before, whether they were on the fowl site or not. You meet more fish in a smaller pond.
@PandaChronicle @SpockResists @ChristineDantz exactly, lots of diverse voices I am truly enjoying
@TinCanWin @PandaChronicle @SpockResists @ChristineDantz It was Tris and Pippi that mentioned pinned intros yesterday, and I did one today. Immediately got a few connections I never would have met. It was fun and worth a try.
