  • I mean, Bluesky is essentially a Twitter replacement, so it’s not like many people are going to be on there for tech/FOSS news. Every user on Mastodon knows what the Fediverse is, which means they’re disproportionately more likely to care about FOSS and tech, therefore they’re gonna spread the word more. Especially since most Fediverse users know the negatives of being on centralized social media, so they won’t make a Bluesky account because they have a Fediverse account that will never be stuck on a enshittified platform. Therefore all the tech nerds are here instead of Bluesky anyway.

    We have tech nerds. We don’t have celebrities and “hit tweets”/jokes/memes that are getting screenshotted and dispersed to millions. Which is both a positive, but also a negative. Fediverse could do with more silly “hit tweets” (toots? posts.) that encourage people to join. I just want fanartists personally




  • Liberty mutual ads suck. Full stop.

    I’ve seen ads though that I didn’t hate, or actually showed something interesting/cared about. I can’t remember what it was lol.

    Like there’s a .0001% chance to find a good ad. I also just never see any, but my mom watches a lot of YT on our TV and refuses to try SmartTube, so that’s the only place where I’m forced to see ads…







  • I mean, outside of posting a few pics of college events, I don’t think most of my friends post pictures to Instagram. Hell, some of them like me don’t even have Instagram/major social media anymore.

    Before I left Insta, I didn’t even bother to follow friends/irl people I know because I’d rather talk to them in person that shit’s dumb, I really only looked at memes, silly reels/vids, and fanart of stuff. Like 90% of Gen Z is only on social media for content and lols, not to update each other on their lives

    I talk to my friends in person. We share pictures of shit we do in life to each other in group chats, but 95% of what we do was done as a group anyway. We don’t really feel the need to let randos/online friends know every thing we’re doing all the time.
