When I left Twitter for Mastodon, so many people told me I was making a mistake and Mastodon was dead.
It was a difficult decision to switch because I had been on Twitter for 13 years, and I had accumulated over 16,000 followers.
But here we are, two and a half years later, and I am now followed by 17,000 here on Mastodon.
It is such an important milestone for me, because it proves that while the majority will often chose continuity over change, change often wins.
The future is federated!

100% agree. Thank you for shifting!
I'm very disappointed that so few journalists, governments and influencers bothered to rebuild their social network on safe sites like Mastodon.
After Musk's takeover, they could easily have led their audiences away from the flaming hellsite. Instead, they stuck with their audience and normalised the unacceptable.
When the history books are written about the destruction of 20th C liberal democracy, social media will have a big part.
@TCatInReality one explanation could be, Mastodon is very international.
That is absolutely great, but for a politician from Denmark's perspective, she takes one look in here and thinks, these are not my potential voters.
