@LianaBrooks Yes and yes. Actually my only social media.

@LianaBrooks yes & yes!
And ooof I'm so glad to be off the hook with twixer.. I guess it depends a little on the scenes you're in. Might be some are still rather small. But it's growing keep going

@LianaBrooks it's the best for added value. But don't you find it ironic that most people on the planet carry a phone 24/7 yet use social networks to interact with friends and family? Email would better serve that purpose if phone calls aren't your thing. Part of the value of Mastodon is the intellectual diversity. I'd like to see more ethnic and cultural of that. Friends and family via public networks? Why?

@LianaBrooks although I also use Pixelfed and Lemmy. and especially in case of Pixelfed, sometimes I use it more than Mastodon (depending on whether I crave text content or image content.)

@LianaBrooks yes and yes.

Feels like the most I've ever enjoyed social media.

@LianaBrooks yes!@sudelsurium

@LianaBrooks My two most used social media are Mastodon and Tumblr and I'm very happy with it.

@LianaBrooks Yup. No complaints here.

@LianaBrooks yesterday I got a multi page explainer about the processors in the playstation 3 after casually commenting on a random post about another CPU having issues.

So yes.

@LianaBrooks Yes and very much yes

@motroet@troet.cafe @LianaBrooks@mastodon.online
Yes

@LianaBrooks Yes and yes.

I love knowing our admin and knowing any donation I make goes directly into supporting our instance.

And this is really an amazing place to be. Lots of great people and lots of great tools to filter out the a-holes. I wish I had these Fediverse tools in real life.

Plus no ads is great and I love knowing that I’m not supporting some billionaire a-holes.

@LianaBrooks

Yes and yes.

I have been using it (Mastodon) for several years now.

@LianaBrooks yes, and “yes and no”, in that I cannot get any family or locals on it, so lacking that aspect that used to be Facebook’s only redeeming feature.

@LianaBrooks yes; yes

@LianaBrooks mastadon & technically linked in (only as job add site). Never learned to use any of the social apps for social suff, hence using it as my news source in the morning, and for an occasional scream into the abyss therapy session. I guess it works for that;)

@LianaBrooks oc

@LianaBrooks yes. it's the only networked thing im on besides direct messaging software.

@LianaBrooks 2 x yes

@LianaBrooks yes and yes. The lack of algorithm is bliss. My adhd was very prone to addiction with the other socials. The lack of fascists on here is also bliss!
