@krakalak @Teri_Kanefield ....Those things were pitiful, weren't they? Ugh! And, $100 ea? I'm still wondering why no one told him they were jacked up & cheap looking. πŸ€”

@JasonStiff ..... LOL! Oh, my! They are right across the lot from each other! Cool.

In Alameda, our Dollar Tree increased its base price to $1.25 in 2022. That happened everywhere, right?

That said, (& you probably did this), if I had the choice, I'd start at the 99Β’ Store. 😬 πŸ™ŒπŸ½

@sunnywillow @swaldorff @Teri_Kanefield ... That's a good point. And, I have Fedi.tips saved in my Safari Reading List so I can get to it quickly.

I'm gonna start offering the link, as well. πŸ‘ŠπŸΌ

@sunnywillow @swaldorff @Teri_Kanefield .... I agree. IMO, those who are saying it's too hard are not trying. Patience was thrown out of the window. They want to be able to use it instantly & with ease.

That said, there is a lot of 'how-to' info on the inter-webs (😬)!! All they have to do is Google search 'how to use Mastodon'., and --tada!- there it is.

Real talk?...it's laziness.

@kahyrn @Teri_Kanefield ... Yep. So funny! I've been on Mastodon since mid-Nov, and I'm still learning...everyday.

Side Note: Read all of the @feditips when they pop up. They are very helpful in learning in small bites. You can also save them to go back to by clicking the bookmark icon. πŸ˜‰

@Teri_Kanefield ....Hi Teri! Thank you so much for opening up this dialogue.

I, too, noticed MANY comments about Mastodon being "too hard", & it made me chuckle. Like, did they forget that even Twitter was a challenge for some in the beginning? Something new *always* comes with a learning curve.

I look at Mastodon as a new neighborhood, where you have to find the PO, grocery stores, meet neighbors, etc. It all takes time.

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa everyone!

...$137.80, today (12/20, 9:50pm PT)

Wow...

@scottjshapiro.....Well, just before I replied, I checked and it's at $137.80. Back in Nov 2021, it was $407.36.

So, yeah...bad for him.

@Jarhead80 .... Hmmm, ok. It looks like you're on a phone or tablet. I'm on a laptop so we aren't looking at the same set up.

Sorry about that.

I haven't ventured onto using Mastodon on my phone yet. I guess it's time. I'll post again when I figure it out.
