Choose Mastodon. Choose the Fediverse.
Choose curiosity over virality. Boost because you care. Follow because you’re interested. Be niche. Be human.
Choose Freedom.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://macaw.social/users/andypiper/statuses/115864851606201165 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)

I think I found a way to keep within the same framing as the original, but to not veer to nihilism at the end.

So why choose any of this, when it’s easier not to?
Because caring is the point.
Because building together beats shouting alone.
Because the best places don’t trap you - they let you choose.
