I really appreciate Mastodon. I lost my voice on Twitter and chose not to post or reply for the most part, and would simply retweet. I did not want to deal with those who feel I have no right to express my opinion and feel they have every right to harass people into silence. I do not have a burning need to express myself in public forums but I do think it's nice to have an outlet. Perhaps my interactions here will change, but so far everyone deserves a gold star. 🌟 #GoldStar #NotLG
