Folks, this may sound a bit precious, but try using #Twexiter instead of #TwitterRefugee if you think about it. The reason why (which I learned barely a week ago) is that there are actual communities of refugees on the Fediverse and we want to be good neighbors.

Just a suggestion, not a gatekeep.

Am I the only #Twexiter who is *not* looking to replicate on #Mastodon the network from there? I've found many of the same people here through hashtags and friends of friends, but also many new people the same way. My Mastodon feed is more pleasant and interesting, maybe due to #Federation and less aggressive #algorithm. I wonder whether the #birdsite algorithm limited my options of who to follow (intentionally or otherwise) to maximize #arousal (and thus stress).
