I reread books all the time. I have several I go back to regularly from my preteen/teen years. It's like watching a movie from your childhood, lol, nostalgic and comfortable. I always pick up new/forgotten tidbits .

There is a check box for "show bot accounts" in settings, which I unchecked after blocking one of them, lol.

I blocked the lemmit bot and I haven't seen as much. I think it's silly. If they person who originally posted it on Reddit is now in the fediverse and wants to share their old posts, they can. Otherwise, I'm not a fan.

🤣🤣 This is most entertained I've been online in a long time, lol. I don't know what you're doing, and I hope you're taking care of yourself, but thank you for all the laughs.

I'm "obsessed" with the sub because of the irony, the lack of certification, and all the stupid decisions that went into it. The cause of the sub's destruction is very interesting to discuss. Every time I learn more about the company and the CEO's decisions, I'm more baffled that anyone went anywhere with them.

The migrant boat situation is super sad and not fun to discuss. I don't come to social media to be depressed.

I think you guys have been doing fantastic so far. The only trouble I've had with the fediverse is getting into beehaw. I just get the spinning wheel of death.

Anyone complaining should either help, or shut up.

Same, except Android here.

I appreciate you being active here, answering questions and checking people's account status. I'm sure you all are slammed!

I'm not complaining, but it did feel like an interview to me. But that's just my anxiety talking. I haven't gotten logged in yet, but I've heard there's a backlog of accounts to get through that have been approved. High volume of applications causing issues, I'm guessing. But I don't think the three questions is a bad thing for beehaw to require. If you can't be bothered to put in that little amount of effort, then you probably won't actively contribute, with comments or posts, so what will you bring to the community? Or if people give negative/troll answers, it keeps them out.

I won't go back to mastodon because I opened the app to a huge picture of a wang, and I do NOT want that content, so I have the settings set to block it. It wasn't blurred, or hidden behind a "click to reveal" button. Just wide open, filling my entire screen. And I had to keep seeing it to check if it was tagged nsfw, and to click to report.

I honestly found myself browsing Facebook more and more over the past several months, rather than Reddit. It just wasn't holding my interest like it used to. I was a Reddit user from summer '07 until June 11th, 2023, but the switch to the fediverse was easy. I've really enjoyed the last few days here.
