I made the transition to npub1aa7pa6ez3cw86metw8aruhqpyx52g684avevc402v4tmfj05nnvqzxcrr0 (npub1aa7…crr0) the day Elon closed his deal. Looking back, the difference is surreal.
On Twitter, my feed was full of political trolls pushing my buttons and pissing me off and making me question my faith in humanity.
On Mastodon, I get to read opinions from many of the same people I respected over there... but also I get brief, random windows into subcommunities like npub1usw6t04zxu79wdk4ssfag46xw0yv8v0jk5vz42awlt382u7fn5lqpmyarl (npub1usw…yarl), which is a delightful group of nature weirdoes and scientists posting pictures of moss they see out in the wild. It's so wholesome and positive that it restores my faith in humanity.
