    @LianaBrooks if by "primary" you mean "the one you actually post on" then yes (for micro blogging style stuff at least).

    It's working very well so far.

        Only social media. Sufficient.

          @LianaBrooks When I left Twitter in November 2022, I got my own server and I haven't looked back since. Yes and yes.

            @LianaBrooks Yes and yes! 😊 2 years since I deleted my last other SoMe, Instagram. I have Pixelfed, but I don’t use it.

              Yes and yes.
              Coming from Twitter the security community here quickly became vibrant 😁
              Loosely found other communities as well

                @LianaBrooks yes. Yes. I said Facebook was a fad when it started and waited for this.

                  @LianaBrooks Yes. Also use some other fedi systems (pixelfed, lemmy, bookwyrm) and also I keep linkedin because I love the cringe but I rarely use it at all. I invested some time and love to my mastodon feed and I've gotten it back ten times.

                    Well, I started my Fediverse-journey in 2018 on Mastodon, but have since migrated to Firefish, Iceshrimp, now Akkoma and Sharkey, and pixelfed as well.

                    However, yes, I use the Fediverse exclusively since the end of '22.

                        Yes + Yes.

                        The fediverse is the best open social network I've ever been. (I'm certainly not only connected to people with mastodon, it is one of the great features that we have different services interconnected).

                        It is not perfect, but rather good.

                          @LianaBrooks Yes and yes massively! I really enjoy Mastodon and also Pixelfed, Peertube; these are perfectly matched for my purpose.

                            @LianaBrooks It has to, I never had an account on FB or Twitter, I've always found their model to be broken by design. And it turned even worse than I thought possible...

                              @LianaBrooks Yes, except for two whatsapp groups for work, which Isn't 'social' per se... so .

                                @LianaBrooks yes and Oh, yes. I love it on the fediverse. Mostly polite discourse, great user controls. What's not to like?

                                  @LianaBrooks It's a yes and yes from me. It's a much more enjoyable platform.

                                    Yes and meh.
                                    Well, depending on what you qualify as SoMe.
                                    Does Signal count? Otherwise, most people in my age group are of course on Instagram and Snapchat (which violates their TOS btw). But, as I am a rule-adhering person, I never created an account there, and now have found my leftist echo chamber here. My friends all have Signal, and so we send each other posts there (and also do so less frequently).
                                    Mastodon to scream at the world, Signal for friends.

                                      @LianaBrooks it's my only social media. Can't stand the other ones.
                                      Mastodon's not perfect, but it's good enough for me.

                                        @LianaBrooks yes its working. imported users from twitter and added some random ones based on topic search. now more followers and no advertizement crap. Twitter I abandoned completely the day Elon killed the API so well working clients (which existed way before twitters own rubbish client) got locked out. I enjoy the genuity of Mastodon users. Way more quality
