A late #FollowFriday to these accounts trying to move forward the #FediverseMigration, the #TwitterMigration and the #redditMigration:

More power to you all:

...and these two efforts I help with:

Join me in the movement to #TakeBackSocial, to find a better social home, and help others do the same.

📈 Doctorow's post deserves all the boosts it is getting and more! @pluralistic reminds me of the BBS/FIDONET days when I had so much hope for human connections across the network. I wished for a world where ideas are exchanged and evaluated based on their (then largely text-only) content.

Perhaps that hope can be rekindled with the rise of decentralized social media.🤞

Hey, other people who came over in the #TwitterMigration and are feeling lost: I'm starting to find my feet, and I wrote a big Tumblr post on what's been helping me. Mastodon veterans, please chime in! https://at.tumblr.com/rachelkolar/703652554788274176/uumvg3tkbrvv #twitterexodus #mastodonmigration #FediverseMigration #FediverseTips

One thing I've found difficult transitioning from Twitter to Mastodon is when I discover and follow a mutual follower from Twitter... and they don't follow me back.

I try to remind myself that a) they may not recognise me as well as I do them and b) whether someone follows me is up to them and needn't mean I've 'done something wrong'. But I guess it's inevitable to feel a little rejected!
