StaceyHey if you’re coming here from #BlueSky please be welcome! We’re happy you’re here. It’s not that intense, I promise. Most of us are chill. Pull up a seat and tell us about yourselves. ✨
WorldTravelerAll7@Vidyala as someone who was booted from #bluesky for "over" celebrating the "passing" of a racist, fascist, misogynist bigot,
in my month on #Mastodon i'm very happy i'm now here. I get more engagement here when i ask questions than i ever got on #bsky even tho i went from 1.4k followers to none
& i'm learning about the #fediverse which i was completely unaware of
this feels like a good space to be. tho i said that of bsky for the first 5 months, & i've only been here 1. 😁💙
Astrius@WorldTravelerAll7 Welcome to Mastodon, we are glad to have you!
@WorldTravelerAll7 Masto is a lot less about collecting followers and a lot more about just connecting with people. I’ve been here years now and it’s my fave social by far. There are people who post photos of moss, artists, scientists, creatives, delightful weirdos. It’s just a good vibe. Glad you’re here :)
@Vidyala exactly💙
i didn't do social media, but joined bsky after the election to be part of the #resistance as i'd heard that's where it was. & unless one acquires followers, their posts go unnoticed
bsky does have some good groups like those you listed, & a lot more people discussing them. i found a fun #pigeon group
but very little political discussion except to troll or get likes, imo
stuartWelcome.
The only issue I have with the Fediverse is I agree with too many people. It would be good to have some more challenging responses. But respectful comment across political divides is rather out of fashion nowadays.
Which means there really isn't an open civilised forum for debate any longer. Fediverse is a too comfortable place. But I know of none better.
Hi Stuart,
I'm happy to be agreeing w/ people rather than arguing, especially when it comes to creating what i call #MyBlueWorld or on bsky #My💙🌐 but emojis don't work in #s here😁
& where we differ on how to,
or i don't know how & want input,
i'm grateful people offer input instead of telling me why i'm wrong, regardless of their knowledge🙄
maybe there's less fighting bc more people here are builders than destroyers, morons & trolls
i'm always up for good faith debate😉

@Vidyala yes indeed. Def upload a profile pic and do an introductory post. You don't have to be fancy, just whatever you enjoy is fine.
