@LianaBrooks Mastodon is my one and only social media. I had pretty much abandoned social media entirely for a few years before finding and joining Mastodon. It is without a doubt the best experience I've ever had on any social media platform.
Mastodon is not a rage factory as all the other social media platforms were...it is a home.
(Don't get me wrong, there's PLENTY of rage at the news articles being shared...but not about or because of the platform itself.)
