After being on #Mastodon for about 1.5 years I can safely say I love it. Mostly because the robust filters, no ads and ability to choose how my feed looks like it's the best thing ever.
Also ya, philosophically, I totally support the idea of decentralized, non-corporate owned social media and hope this is the future.
@liztai same here. It's not perfect but then what is?
@dominik amen! I am also secretly glad a lot of people think it's too complex to even try . So those who do are naturally filtered
I love the diversity - probably due to the mix of people I follow and who they follow. The range of topics in my home feed is always interesting and often inspiring!
Glad i made the move.
@simoncox yup it's so good not to be trapped in an Algorithm rabbit hole where you click one topic and get recommended everyone who writes about said topic!
@liztai refreshing to see some working social network beyond ads .
@liztai I’ve been checking out Threads and it’s like Twitter Jr, or going into a room of crowded people trying to sell you rubbish. It certainly is better on Mastodon.
