@mayintoronto I joined a little after Eugene made Mastodon. An anarchist friend of mine showed it to me and I immediately recognized it as the future of social media (along with the rest of the Fedi)

I wasn't very active at first, and I got a lot of shit from people for bringing my Twitter attitude with me, but slowly I saw the value in the difference and allowed myself to dive deeper into it's ways.

I slowly left Twitter and made this place my home a few years before Twitter became the dumpster fire that it is.

I love the Fedi. I support the Fedi as much as I am able through my humor, my kindness, and what little financial support I can give. The people here are wonderful, and I feel like I can contribute in meaningful ways.

And for all of that, I am grateful,
