I know mastodon is very popular and I’ve browsed around a few times, but i don’t really get it. It’s person following instead of topic following, right? I had a Twitter account, but i only followed local bars, music venues, etc. to see upcoming events and happy hours deals. I can’t think of a person i would want to follow.
Most people i know don’t complain a lot about the other places. When i bring up the constant marketing and such, they mostly don’t care. When interacting with people you know on social media there’s an expectation that you follow them, post/respond appropriately, etc. It’s tiring. I would use a different account.
Will you share your name with them? Did you communicate with irl people on the other place?
Most of my friends are fully entrenched in mainstream social media and i don’t think there’s much interest in doing something different. I have a couple of friends and family members who i think are probably here, but we don’t talk about it.
I don’t. When people say, “Do you use r/?” I reply with, “I left it during the blackout.” That usually ends it.
I read a review a while back and I think those were actually the highest rated ones. Costco used to have them, which is great because then you can return them for any reason.
We’ve had lots of them. It’s depends on the community but we’re generally older than r/, more female then you think, and slightly to very ‘techie’.
I’m android. I get a view button that skips the paywall.
The duck used to be pretty good but now it seems like a jumble of crap.
Where’s the button?
Same. Last night i went in and deleted all of my subscriptions except for the 3 i really want to keep checking in on.
I’m making a brisket today. No beans. Is there s good cooking community? Or grilling/smoking?
You could make a different account for each category. Would be kind of clunky having to switch when you want to read each category.
