I just ran Power Delete Suite on all of my comments and self posts, stating they have been removed in protest.
On July 1st, I am deleting every comment and post, then closing my account. Reddit was fun while it lasted.
The fediverse is still raw, but I see massive protentional here, and I am ready for this journey with all of you.
It’s crazy isn’t it? Six months in and Mastodon still hasn’t clicked for me, but six days here and I know I’m not going back to Reddit.
Same boat. But Twitter wasn’t really my kind of social media anyway, maybe that’s why Mastodon hasn’t locked in?
Yeah it took me a couple of tries before I got Twitter, so I’ve been sticking with Mastodon so far. This might well be what I was looking for all along though.
twitter is way more useful for following people or groups for news/updates than posting comments and forming communities
like a secondary social media platform you can link elsewhere
It’s the voting system that does it imo. When everyone just shouts random thoughts into the void hoping it goes viral the overall quality tends to be low. It makes for a decent RSS feed, but so do RSS feeds.
Twitter’s only purpose is for blue checkmarks to scream into the void, but why do that when you can watch more fun versions of blue checkmarks shitpost on Lemmy instead?
Yeah, I never had a Twitter, and when I tried mastodon I got visually assaulted by a full screen picture of a wang, so I’m good here.
“The future is now old man!”

Same here. Mastodon is nice, but never felt as good as Lemmy for me. Additionally the content here is much more interesting for me.
My sentiments exactly! It feels like Lemmy is exploding. But like, a good explosion.
Does mastodon have anything else going on besides Twitter type stuff?
Well, you can access Lemmy posts from Mastodon, but it doesn’t seem to be the ideal way to do it.
I would love it if Mastodon really was a Twitter replacement, but although the functionality is there, the atmosphere never seems to get as chaotic and joyful as Twitter could be. Maybe that will just take time though.
I haven’t been able to find account with some like nuked and dank ass memes yet. I just want to find account that straight up bullshit
I somehow ended up following a bunch of trans anarchists. So my page is filled with that and some New York Times posts. It’s pretty entertaining.

Haha, I’m sure that will change as both platforms grow.
