Hey everyone I did a cartoon for the Guardian about why Mastodon is my favourite microblogging site. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/07/twitter-is-burning-bluesky-is-smug-where-is-the-best-place-to-do-your-pathetic-doomscrolling
Twitter is burning, Bluesky is smug. Where is the best place to do your pathetic doomscrolling?

Here is First Dog on the Moon’s handy guide to the dystopian social network you should be on

@firstdogonthemoon er … the cartoon says BlueSky is your favourite. Is it part of the joke that you’re saying Mastodon is your favourite, when it’s not? Whoosh over my head, if so. This is the first FDonM cartoon I’ve not enjoyed, and I’ve seen a lot over the years :/

BlueSky might not have nazis but it’s full of techbros. Wouldn’t have thought that’d be your scene?

Also, there are definitely shitposters here on Mastodon. There are a few servers dedicated to it, even.

@Brendanjones @firstdogonthemoon For a while I completely forgot that the jorts.horse instance exists. Just gotta know where to find them.

@antifawarlord @firstdogonthemoon yeah and a fair few memelords on beige.party. There are a couple others but I can’t remember them.
