Absolute agree. So many nay sayers trying to downplay, but the fediverse is real, it is here and it is growing. Numbers don’t lie. And the more these billionaire asshats like Musk and Zucc (and wannabees like Spez) disregard the communites that make their sites profitable, the more the fediverse grows. I’m not going back to Twitter ever, or reddit even if the API bullshit is recinded because the fediverse is OURS
I got rid of Twitter back in November when shtf a bit. I have had some fantastic conversations on Mastodon, and I expect to have some fantastic conversations here, as well!
Right? I can post something on Mastodon and get real people responding on the regular. Never had that on Twitter. It’s like posting to ChatGPT, but responses are slower and by actual people.
The regular responses from real people! I love it. I’ve made some extensive-ish posts over there and have had people actually ask me questions and we’ve had some good back and forth.
I think we’re talking about what is precisely at the heart of this post’s article. This is what the Internet once was and could be again. Raw, janky, real.
