Personal, social media (1/3)
I quit Twitter in 2022 when Musk took over. I was part of some good, active communities there, especially in editing, book, and linguistics circles.
Conversations had been getting hard to muster even pre-Musk. The vibe had soured, and when the takeover happened I was done.
Mastodon appealed and immediately seemed much more positive, friendly, and authentic. It still does.
