              @LianaBrooks haven't used anything else in years.
              I don't think social media is working in general so that probably doesn't help you 😅

                @LianaBrooks yes and yes, I don't have Facebook since years, I left twitter when Melon Tusk took it and I don't have Instagram anymore since January. I use Mastodon and pixelfed and I'm really happy with it!

                  @LianaBrooks yeap. I don't actually post I come to see what people with brains have to say and it's working great.

                      @LianaBrooks yes, I have left Meta only one month ago but I love it here. Unfortunately friends and family still use fb and ig, but I hope they'll switch, sooner or later.
                      I am still working on my feed and connections, it takes some time, but the engagement is genuine and I post because I want, not because I have to in order to keep being seen from the algorithm. I wish more people realized that.

                        @LianaBrooks Yes and yes, and I even recently started a silly but enjoyable trend with @Gemueseturnir , a tournament of vegetables. Mastodon has it all (except the mean algorithms), you just need to make it work.

                              @LianaBrooks It works for me.

                              The culture of your local clique might vary, but to me it is the open social media that is most ressiliant to social reach as the main criteria for sucess.

                              This makes it a safer environment to drop your masks.

                              It is absolutly not perfect, but except for closed groups it is the best I know of.

                                    @LianaBrooks yes and no. I found the interaction rate on Mastodon is way lower than the other closed platforms. But Im no influencer living from it, so I don't care much.

                                      I use it as my primary social media, but can't say that its working for me. Most of the time I just post what other people say, but I dont feel like there are many communities on here except for a self-selecting few

                                        Yes and yes, and I dumped everything else because I got tired of ads being forced on me - despite ad-blockers - and algorithms hiding all the stuff I actually wanted to read.

                                        Here I pick who to follow, and see all their content. I can filter keywords to avoid certain topics or make them stand out more. I follow a few "super-boosters" who introduce me to new people constantly.

                                        I love it here, and I'm not going back to corporate-owned social media.
