A handy guide for folks shopping for social networks this week
@rodhilton I'll take it 
@Lazarou @rodhilton Mastodon can be any of those depending on the user because the user creates their feed and there's no algorithm trying to feed "interesting" (read: rage-baity) posts to them artificially β€‹
@rodhilton Is toxicity on the z-plane?
@jeromechoo No toxicity is maxed out on all of them
@Gednet yeah anyone who tries to be funny gets the Mastodon HOA sending them violation letters in their replies
@rodhilton
Perhaps we are using the word "funny" to different ends?
I'm using it for things that make me #PMSL.

@rodhilton I’ll add Post to the list. Friendly, welcoming. Not everyone’s cup of tea but not a broken beer bottle either.
@rodhilton To be fair, I find plenty of funny stuff on Mastodon as well .. Not touching BS ever.

@amartya00 last time I said Mastodon isn't funny and people said they follow funny people I tried this and got zero replies so let's try again:

tag the five funniest accounts you follow.

@rodhilton @lowqualityfacts posts lot's of funny stuff! Check out that account! Others I find some funny re-posts from random people from time to time! πŸ™ƒ. Back in the Twitter days my source of funny memes was a "Internet hall of fame". Sadly they are not here..

@rodhilton @amartya00

so there's a few entire instances you can check out for that, depends on your sense of humor but if you're looking for the "weird twitter" style, a lot of that can be found at jorts.horse or beige.party (for example, @theropologist or @ancient_catbus)

there's also comic artists like @ZachWeinersmith or @CrustaceanSingles, and real life comedians like @donni

there, there's 5. I do follow more comic artists and shitposters than just this but this is at least a sampling.

@rodhilton So what you're saying is I'm already in the right place 🐘
