Sure, the-app-formerly-known-as-Twitter was a dumpster fire, but there were so many things in that dumpster, and not all of them were on fire!
Anyway, right now it's a mad scramble of people going here, there, and everywhere right now, and I sincerely dislike it all.
Threads isn't navigable by communities - not really. I want to see the people I've followed not what the algorithm thinks I should see.
Mastodon is complicated and maybe it's just on the servers where I've landed but it feels very political real-world. Maybe that's just the accounts/servers I was following at the start. Which is okay, sometimes, but also not necessarily how I want to interact all the time. Also, although several people I know have made accounts on it, nobody I knew from before is actually *using* it.
I kind of miss activity on DW - yes, there's some lovely little community on here, but I don't really feel like I can participate in most of it because I'm not terribly fannish anymore except on my specific topics - which I suspect has gotten me blackballed in several areas. It's just me and the people who post about their RL stuff and comment on my RL stuff. (Thanks, my peeps, I loves youse.)
Also, where else am I going to find the broad range of topics and interests that is so much of my internet existence? A nice broad variety of thingage! (Thinkage? Thingengage?)
Stupid elno.
