I have a Mastodon account but I’m too socially anxious to actually post there
I’m also too socially anxious to post here but the comment format helps me get over it sometimes
Feels more conversational vs shouting into the void vibe.
That’s why I’ve never understood microblogging. I have a mastodon it just seems totally pointless tho.
The illusion of anonymity helps a lot. Nobody knows what we look like or what our net worth is or what gross habits we have, we’re all on even playing ground here, sharing our thoughts as anonymous humans.
I get you. I have a private journal that I post my thoughts on, as I don’t want some random person I don’t know chiming in.
I prefer the communities method more, since slows down my over sharing
Showerthoughts goes meta
You can expect more interaction on the showethought itself. IMO microblogs are more about poster, thread style forum is for a topic.
Is that a problem?
Ain’t no one said it was, pitchforks down
If the options are u/showerthoughts or
TwitterX, then I choose u/showerthoughts.mastodon,?
I agree. Things are much more dignified over here.
Not nearly as racist, though
This just in:
@gregorum@lemm.eeadmits to not knowing what the fediverse is – on the fediverse.
Oh no
Is there an actual mind dump community? I would have been a bigger Twitter user if I didn’t feel like I was speaking into a void.
I see what you did there.
I’m gonna pretend like I didn’t post this on microblogging fedi 2 months ago already
