Of the folks I interacted with on the bird site, I'm noticing these migration patterns:

* #security peeps have mostly moved over here, primarily to infosec.exchange and a few to hachyderm or self-hosting
* dev & #FOSS folks have migrated en masse, primarily to hachyderm and self-hosting
* science fiction friends have mostly made the jump
* journalists are a mix - lots of folks cross-posting and lots still posting "write-only" over there, but lots still engaging too
* my #LGBTQ peeps are active in both places
* disability advocacy friends are still over there; a few #ADHD peeps are over here
* DEI type folks have depressingly mostly not moved here, but to LinkedIn
* founders & VCs have almost entirely _not_ moved
* housing/urbanist types mostly haven't moved, especially Canadians

Curious how that lines up with what others are seeing, especially among groups I haven't listed (those happen to be the groups I personally interact with – curious about your personal equivalents!)

#twittermigration #fediverse

@leigh most of my #FolkMusic friends haven't moved, I'm afraid. For a lot of them, Twitter's algorithm and the need to promote gigs and music releases make that an understandable choice, at least in the short term.

@pdcawley @leigh
Agreed about #FolkMusic

Twitter was always 2nd to FB for Here’s our gig, how does social media work? Why can’t we just play #IndieMusic? Ever since MySpace imploded in 2008

Masto is asking people to take on “another” thing, not just switch to a new one

None of the social media ever worked as well for promotion as a good email list and alt-weekly

(No idea if that is accurate, but it Feels true)

@gunchleoc ooh! I didn't realise @ionafyfe had moved over here. Brilliant singer and excellent arse kicker so she is.

And it's always great to be introduced to new folk too, so thank you!
