@LianaBrooks @pseudonym yep*2

@LianaBrooks primary? Well maybe 40 percent masto and 60 percent bsky.

@LianaBrooks The Fediverse is my only remaining social medium. It's the only tolerable one left.

@LianaBrooks I deactivated all my other social media accounts in 2022 after Melon Husk enshittified X. I have not looked back since. And even though I was on Twitter and Facebook from nearly the beginning, I slowly rebuilt my sources of information on Mastodon and am highly impressed by the lack of corporate authoritarianism on the platform.

@LianaBrooks

Yes.

Yes.

Gave up Musk's thing in early '17 (I think?) and gave up Zuck's thing in '22 and was 100% off until last Sept. I poke at it occasionally because of some groups I run.

@LianaBrooks @punissuer It’s my primary. But I also reluctantly use X as most people I need info for work or other things still post there. I can’t get away. But I engage more on Mastodon.

@LianaBrooks One and only. Works fine.

@LianaBrooks Yes, Mastodon is my primary social media platform and it's great. I have no need for going elsewhere.

@LianaBrooks its my only social media account for many years. It brings me such a sense of relief and jolly that I often have trouble understanding the cruel silliness of other social media and certain events. Sometimes I have to ask people IRL "have you heard about this [big fediverse thing]" but usually the gap isnt that wide.

@LianaBrooks 90% primary. I Bluesky occasionally, but the community here is working out amazingly for me.

@LianaBrooks i congratulate you on developing the perfect question to drive engagement on Mastodon.

@LianaBrooks love it. Once you get used to authentic engagement, it's what social media used to be.

@LianaBrooks I am, it seems to work well for me but I still use it way more than I should.

@LianaBrooks Yes and yes!

@LianaBrooks It's my main (if you count the professional Slack group I'm in), and I love it.

@LianaBrooks yes and no. but social media shouldn’t work.

@LianaBrooks yes and yes.

@LianaBrooks yes and yes. Except when it comes to much needed work finding (focus of every thing every day)

However LinkedIn is far more useless and at least here I'm mansplained less

@LianaBrooks yes, and yes.

@LianaBrooks yes, on here I can't be shadow banned or censored by billionaires
