Yet another social media battle rant.
For the past year I have been torn between "Let's convince them of the fun of Mastodon" and "Fuck them, we don't need them" and now I'm a real mess.
In 2013 I convinced 99% of my friends to move on from WhatsApp to Telegram and for a while thought I could do the same with X (formerly Twitter) users and Mastodon. But it feels like living my life in a purgatory, constantly tormented. "Mastodon is difficult, Bluesky is a breath of fresh air", "I don't get Mastodon and its nerds, but Bluesky is wonderful".
I need to stop.
Fuck this.
I have my place here.
