I treat Mastodon like a secret, exclusive club. In 3+ years on here, I think I've told 3 people IRL about it. When they showed zero interest in it, I was like, oh thank god.
@the_etrain I have a coworker who I'd call a friend who I've told about the fediverse because I thought he'd like it. I think it was in one ear, out the other. That's cool. I like it here. 🙃
