@LianaBrooks Yup I am. I do read a bit on others but never post anywhere else. Oh wait. I do post on Lemmy but that’s also Fedi

@LianaBrooks ...I guess? It does feel like there's maybe five people that actually read my posts, but once I stopped worrying about these things and embraced the JOMO, my life got much better. Or, at least, nicer.

@LianaBrooks working just fine

@LianaBrooks yes + yes

@LianaBrooks yes and yes

@LianaBrooks yes, and it is, because what I want is lots of ideas, photographs and opinions, and sometimes some personal interaction

@LianaBrooks yup its working for me!

@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.
