@caoil No idea.Ive had enough so I'm deleting my account. I was really hoping for some nice, interesting conversations, but most of the time nobody can be bothered to reply.
@SturdyAlex @iandunt @pimlicat @stephenfry Anyway, I'm hugely disappointed with how little interaction there is. And even more disappointed to see that people I respected would rather use Twitter despite how disgusting it is because it gives them a bit more clout. To the rest of you who I've spoken to, and took the time and effort to chat with me, thank you. I wish there were a lot more of you. Take care.
@SturdyAlex @iandunt @pimlicat @stephenfry The only reason I can't think of is that they're more concerned with furthering themselves than having principles, and that's making me think maybe they're not worth following anyway. I was shocked to see how much hatred and racism is on twitter. Why would anyone put their name to that. If twitter was a bar, would they drink in it? I know I wouldn't. This is the first time I've used social media, so maybe I was expecting too much.
I'm sacking Mastodon off.
I've had some lovely chats to people of here but they're few and far between. Some of the people I was most looking forward to following like @SturdyAlex @iandunt @pimlicat @stephenfry etc haven't posted anything for months! I dared venture onto twitter for the first time, and they're all posting on Twitter, and I can't imagine why anyone would want to be a part of that hellscape run by what is clearly a fascist prick.

@NickGates Wonderful mate. Well done to you both.
@GottaLaff Just had it myself. Reported and blocked. 3rd one this week.
@NickGates Congratulations. First one?
Anyone else think it's gone quiet on here? I've been following new people etc in an attempt to make it more interesting but very little interaction with posts etc. I don't seem to get many responses even with replies to others comments. Others mentioning it too. Maybe I'm just boring ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
@KFClinton @Brandi_Buchman Colour/Colour is another than you guys spell correctly and we have changed. The only thing that we could find that's not right is Math/Maths, because it's mathematics, not mathematic. So there you go, better at English than the English ๐Ÿ˜„
@KFClinton @Brandi_Buchman Absolutely, and why should you change it anyway. I love differences, and we all know what's going on with it anyway. If anyone thinks there's more than 12 months they're probably beyond help anyway. I recently was talking to my cousin who lives in upstate New York and we found out that despite our common language American English is actually more accurate to how it should be than ours. Zee is correct and Zed is a mutation for example.
