I hope everyone is prepared for the fact that this place will soon be overrun with assholes once they figure out it's where people are going. It always happens and it will be a very serious challenge for the moderators. Gird yourself.

@digby the server where all the artists went to I followed on Twitter has my instance blocked so it’s already a bunch of fun not to see any drawings anymore on here…

Because mastondon.social supposedly is full of Nazis already… :shrug:

@speitsch @digby yeah I would recommend going to a smaller instance. For site performance as much as getting away from jerks
@huxley @speitsch @digby Second this. dotSocial is an okay first landing pad, but it's not a great way to actually enjoy Mastodon for what it is.
@ThatDarnMoose @huxley @digby we‘ll see what happens some of those artists loved instances and lost all their followers so I am going to wait and see
@speitsch @huxley @digby Moving instances doesn't mean you lose your followers, that comes a long with you (provided its done correctly). What doesn't come along is the posts you made on the old account. Those stay there along with a "this account has moved to X" message. A
@ThatDarnMoose like I said their followers didn’t move with them. So they moved back. I can only describe what I saw.
