@tokyo_0 ah thanks for the info that pictures are blurred with CW. That's good to know.
Okay, i thought the pictures would be behind the CW, they are not (still very new here), but they are recognized as sensitive content. I am not very sure yet what I feel about the extensive CW culture here on Mastodon, but that's a different topic and I try my best to adapt for the time being.

So far, it looks like western tech, policy, and journalist folks are beginning to migrate to Mastodon en masse. Not ubiquitous, but enough that a critical mass can be said to be starting to form in each.

But Mastodon users seem largely U.S./European. I've seen very few e.g. non-diaspora Indians make the migration to Mastodon; the only one that comes to mind is @internetfreedom. Not aware of any Indian reporters/etc who've migrated.

How do we make Mastodon more accessible for the global South?

@kayde I just went on your website. your thoughts on family history are beautiful, I can relate to the in between feeling although differently and will put The Mountains Sing on my reading list!

And your publications list sounds soo cool! Fight that imposter mood (know that one also too well) and believe all compliments you get: they are deserved!

usually I think I handle impostor syndrome very well. maybe it has something to do with growing up in an Asian household and being told what amazing things other relatives are achieving? but i swear in academia it's still difficult to handle 😤
