"I'm only on Mastodon now" is the "I have gone vegan" of social media

@tomw It really isn’t. Vegans always proselytise. Most Fedi users offer it only when asked.

@whvholst I think you're assuming that I have a negative view of veganism, which I don't.

Anyway, calling it "fedi" is like being vegan and wearing a T-shirt that says "I am vegan"

@whvholst @tomw

I'm vegan. I don't proselytize. I've been married to an omnivore for 34 years. Stereotypes are not useful.

@whvholst @tomw that seems like sampling bias - how would you know if someone was vegan if they didn’t proselytize?
