@samro I’ll say what I want about Mastodon: what a kind, inspirational, welcoming place. I’m very happy here.

@samro The people are nice.

@samro It’s pleasant. #TGIF, all. 👋🏼

@samro getting better will take time. What I want is more posts. It still seems like an afterthought at this point.

@samro More horizontal than vertical. More engagement. Connection with interesting people. After 6 weeks, I like it better than the old place.

at least it's an ethos.

@samro Member since 2010. It’s been great so far. Much better with so many people joining. A neg in my opinion is ‘well-known’ people being spoofed so not sure which journalists to follow. Can mastodon keep out the inevitable bots? We’ll see.

@samro it’s not as busy as Twitter, but i can find late breaking news and I’m not inundated with russian bots and Elonsanity

@samro I’m enjoying it. I am perplexed that some users say the interface/process/experience is not intuitive. Using the iOS-based app, it’s simple and seamless.

@samro I’m into it so far.

@samro it's actually nice to see what others have to say without a bunch of Nazis threatening you. It's relaxing in a way Twitter hasn't been in years.
