    @LianaBrooks Yes this is my primary social media interaction but I am not as satisfied with it as I would wish to be. It's harder to find the types of accounts I am interested in following - predominantly news and arts/culture - but it feels safer and more affirming than twitter ever did. Still, I would like more community within my interests.

      Yes. The only other one I have is Bluesky & I don't spend much time there. I get better interactions & good conversations here.

            @Mikal @LianaBrooks mastodon was the first social media to have age verification. Our age verification is flawless. No one would bother to join mastodon if they weren't practically senile already.

              Oh, I responded because it is a legitimate and interesting question. But also, guaranteed engagement bait. Not in a bad way like a commercial sites.

                      @LianaBrooks Define "primary" and define "working for you"?

                      I don't use social media in an attempt to become famous or become an "infleuncer".

                          Yes. It's awesome.
                          I deleted my Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn accounts and went all in on Mastodon. Best decision ever. Fuck that shit.

                            @LianaBrooks Yes, and not really. The app I’m using (the mastodon app) doesn’t seem super reliable so there are days I can’t load it on my phone (and I know I should try a different app but I haven’t). Mostly I don’t feel really connected here, which is mostly because I don’t interact regularly. But it just hasn’t replaced the feeling of friends and connection I had on fb. (I won’t go back to Facebook though.)

                                @LianaBrooks Yep, it's enough. I can connect with local people and far away people who share interests. It's true there's a lack of diversity, and that makes it less engaging for me, but I view that as a plus because there are things I'd like to do outside of cyberspace, and this being somewhat less engaging is a feature not a bug.

                                      @LianaBrooks primary? It's my *only* social media (unless you count Signal, Matrix, or email).

                                      Once I got settled on Mastodon, I poisoned and deleted my last remaining social accounts.

                                      I have zero regrets.

                                        @LianaBrooks Yes to both; It is the only 'social media' account I still have (other than chat apps), I've deleted all the others.
