@PSiReN #GoodToHear, and #ThankYou, #GladToBeHere

Actually, I'm enjoying my mastodon feed Quite A Lot these days (tho I still miss certain folks from that other place whose absence leaves large gaps in my thinking). But I don't tend to post much. Maybe that's okay. Still #GladToBeHere (not there).

@Paul__Frost you made me look for it and... OMG! Things are worse down there than I thought. Glad I am here now. #musk #twitter #twitterexodus #gladtobehere

@athelas1001 Well, thanks so much for the warm welcome. I look forward to my journey here. It already is proving to be much better than the algorithm based social platforms I've left behind.

Can we pre-emptively ban Elon from Mastodon? The last 2 days have made this place more & more like what I used Twitter for (mostly to follow news, analysis, & social justice work) & the conversations hate just been so much more interesting (with less BP elevation). #gladtobehere

Hello everyone, this app is easy and fun #gladtobehere

@JenWojcik @steveumstead @tuckerteague You are absolutely right! This feels more organic, like how the Internet used to feel. Like webrings and chatrooms and geocities!. Twitter used to feel like this in the very beginning. Smaller connections with people of common interests. I'm loving it! (Plus I'm a nerd and I created a server just to see if I could and now I feel like I own tiny portion of the #Fediverse). #NerdsForTheWin #GladToBeHere

So I have to confess. I am not exclusive with mastodon. I’m still on the bird app at least once a day. And substack. I dabble with Tribel. I haven’t tried my new postnews account. I am neglecting my Instagram account but do pop onto linked in.
Out of all of this this new chaos and cross posting, I’m beginning to love the fresh voices and experimentation I am seeing, especially on #mastodon and substack.

It’s cathartic to write something down and post it into the void even if no one reads your abyss and mastodon feels better than twitter #gladtobehere #mastodonrocks

This could be the start of a beautiful relationship… #gladtobehere

Welp. Off to a new frontier now. Twitter account deleted once the orange clown was let back on. I can’t in good conscience support a product linked to someone so abhorrent. #riptwitter #gladtobehere

I just realized what I'm loving about being here: no ads! Just people talking with one another about interesting things in a civilized way. #GladToBeHere

Been on #mastodon a couple of weeks and the lack of angst is delightful.

Good to see many familiar accounts popping over from the ‘other place’. 🐦

But sad to note a few new accounts pretending to be some of them.
Unprincipled opportunists gonna opportune.

@chartier #wtf :angery:
it is worrying that, while witnessing this type of #behavior , some ppl still believe he’s just an “eccentric” dude having fun. The amount of power (influence and #economic ) hold by only one person makes it hard to believe he just want to “help #humanity . #powertothepeople #twittermigration #gladtobehere #mastodon

During a topic discussing AI/ML at work, I adore that we're dedicating significant focus to--as they put it--"putting a window on the black box" and preventing discriminatory AI/ML practice. Our commitment to #DoTheRightThing makes me incredibly proud. #GladToBeHere #xp

I continue to be proud of this company! #DoTheRightThing #gladtobehere #xp

In a meeting of all teammates in my platform doing end of quarter reviews and retros...and it's reaffirming that I'm a part of a ludicrously smart, funny, and engaged team that takes on new challenges, embraces risk, and has really pounced on "inspect & adapt!"

Whoever was responsible for arranging for cupcakes at this 930am event understands me deeply! #gladtobehere
