Being on twitter is like being in a crowded bar with a ton of assholes and a bad vibe, and then navigating over here is like going out for a smoke and feeling weirdly connected to some drunk stranger who is telling you her whole life story for some reason
@TransCommunist The 500 character limit doesn't hurt either. Tootstorms have a lot more capacity for thought out posts compared to tweets, tweetstorms and other nonsense. I expect if Mastadon takes off long posts will be a more pleasant experience.
