I have been on the edge with twitter and reddit for a while and I have finally deleted my accounts that I have had for a very long time there. They are no longer the places I used to know, even more so with twitter. I am ready for my new time here and on mastodon.

You've taken your first step into a larger world, welcome! (Technically a smaller world but bigger in spirit, ya know?)

Recently signed up for both Lemmy and Mastodon and it's a breath of fresh air after dealing with BS on Twitter and Reddit over the past few years. Welcome!

WHATS UP FUCKERRR

I’ve been free of Twitter, Facebook, insta, etc for years now and I promise it’s a lot more liberating.

Mood has been substantially better, sometimes you get dragged into arguments on here/Reddit too but it’s pretty unlikely to get riled up by the type of trolls you see around here given their immaturity

The main thing I use Twitter for is to follow local sports and unfortunately, only one of the local reporters has a Mastodon account

Gave up Twitter the day of Musk mocked that disabled employee/partner. Didn't delete the account though. I'm still on Reddit. Hope Lemmy would go a long way!!

PS: I still automatically ignore some image posts on Lemmy thinking it's an Ad cause I'm so used to it on Reddit App 😂

I was on the edge, but this event with Halli showed clearly that Elon is not right person to lead Twitter.

Welcome to the Fediverse! It is smaller but it is growing! So far I think it feels more civilised than the chaos out there in the corporate internet.

I don’t use either because of the levels of invectivity of the people on said platforms..

[–] mausy5043@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Delete Facebook too and you are done.

Honestly just don't bother with mastodon.

I deleted Twitter years ago and don't miss it at all.
