Twitter incomers, I implore you.

This community was here and thriving long before we arrived. For the past several years, in fact. Many of the instances are volunteer run. I’ve joined here several separate times.

Please come in with curiosity and respect and an interest in learning about something new (and growing *rapidly* all of a sudden, which taxes the whole system) instead of getting aggravated that someone didn’t set it up perfectly to your liking as a replica to the other place.
