Very amateur writer, #EdTech nerd, LibDem member. Aspie - please call me out & explain stuff. (He/Him)
So here's what I've learned.
Mastodon isn't Twitter.
And that's by design.
You've grown used to things designed to give you that anger rush.
Mastodon is very deliberately built to avoid that.
The temptation is to replicate your Twitter experience.
Picking arguments, amplifying trolls.
Please don't.
This isn't your house, people here put time into building it.
Content warnings, ALT tags.
Don't turn it into a replica of the mess you just left.
If you miss the fights, the birdsite is still there.
@davidallengreen I've generally been against referendums of any sort, I don't agree with them on much but once, so was the Tory party, Thatcher famously labeled them “a device of dictators and demagogues”. I have to agree with her
@traceyno Looking fab, Tracey!
@davidallengreen I don't doubt it'll be beaten - but you certainly deserve the record for now!
And well - I remembered that there is one big account already here that might have beaten you when they joined: @[email protected] but they're cheating by being more than a single person!
@DeanRed123 Oh, yeah - being the same would be nice, but the reactions over there are out of all proportion (as you'd expect).
@DeanRed123 I've taken a look on Twitter & it's that, but also lots of people trying to explain how mastodon works, followed by people replying "too complicated, it needs to be exactly the same as here"
@J_aa_p @DebErupts @Gargron This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
@ghosthungarian @davidallengreen I mean, that's probably my own fault for mentioning a written constitution & saying The Magna Carta...
@DebErupts I'm trying to work this out too - I need to merge my .social account into my .art one!
Wow @davidallengreen has got himself nearly 6000 followers in one day. That has to some sort of Mastodon/Fedi record, surely?
