I've been on #Mastodon for a month now, and I’ve just been posting pics of my #cats

A lot of people have interacted, and everyone's been kind and friendly

And I noticed, any time I have a sneaky look at one of your profiles, it's all anti-fascist! Trans rights! BLM! Anti-capitalist! Feminist! etc.

Which is another reason I love it here

Is it the cat pictures that bring out the kind and progressive people? Is there a connection? Or am I just lucky?

Molly thinks I'm lucky

@rufustheduck The media falsely describe FaceBook as a social media platform when it is really a means of addicting users in order sell more ads. Money from grabbing user attention via mindless doomscrolling. Individual posts drowning in a sea of system posts.

@NicelyManifest agree. FB has been an unusable cesspool for a decade

@rufustheduck But point also is that the media give it that simple, deceiving label.

A better descriptor would include, if not unwieldy doing so, the brain atrophying effects of using FB.
