After 1 week on #Mastodon, the biggest difference I notice compared to #Twitter is the way each network makes me feel.
Twitter:
Open, scroll…
“Why are people so horrible to each other?”
Mastodon:
Open, scroll…
“Wow! There are so many interesting people in the world! I want to know more of them.”
I sense being here is changing my perspective of social media. #TwitterMigration
KEEP IN MIND! #Mastodon doesn't work like #Twitter!
Have you just made the #Twexit or the #TwitterMigration?
Favorites ⭐ - they're not "likes". They don't "elevate" posts, they just the poster know you liked their post.
Boosts 🔁 - these push someone's post into your friends feeds (and help discovery).
So if you ⭐ my posts, that's great (and I love you too)!
But if you 🔁 posts, then more people see them!
OH! - #Hashtags are how you search!
