The flight from Musk's Twitter to the "free" fediverse never really took off.

Don’t like this article 😠 posting it in search of rebuttals. The word “moderation” is not to be found anywhere in it. Oops. Guess I didn’t read this closely enough 🤦‍♂️

    I’ve tried to like Mastodon, but each time I end up deleting my account in frustration, vowing never again. Mastodon is horrible to use, and they like it that way.

      @withersailor @hedge I find it to be nearly identical to 2015 Twitter which is what I grew up with. All of the UI elements to me also resemble that period, so in a way it’s almost nostalgic.

      I’ve never had any sort of confusion when using Mastodon, but maybe that’s just because I’m a technologist.

      The initial hurdle is probably the server choice, which really doesn’t matter a whole lot, but other than that everything is pretty straightforward I feel.
