I never ‘got’ twitter. I’ve created about 3 accounts over the years only to leave them behind. It’s just not for me. I’m also a long-winded person, definitely not an “x characters” person.

I made a mastodon a couple of years ago, I figured it would go the same way. But it didn’t. I found a couple of sweet people that made multilingual puns and liked animals. They had fun friends. The little community grew from there. Now I’m a regular user. When I post, I’m mostly sharing things to “my friends”, not screaming into the wind. Most of this little network is on separate instances each too.
