@toplesstopics For me it’s the other way around: I get way more active conversations here than I ever did on Twitter (which admittedly I wasn’t very good at).
I’m pretty liberal in following people, balanced by liberally unfollowing those that annoy me.
As for Pixelfed: I’ve been active on my smallish instance for two days. Today’s top post currently 77 likes and 25 boosts, which seems like a lot even by the standards of my far more established Mastodon account.
@serapath Personal reason I care: It JS makes my browser-dev hobby harder & constrains my decisions.
Also: I personally find JS makes webdev harder, not easier. And in my normal browsing is more frequently used to frustrate me than to aid me.
As for the remark "who needs anything?", that's not something I can respond to.
@octade Its the information overload that is getting to me.
As a game developer I'm trying to post progress once a week.
What happens is then I end up obsessively reading everyones stuff on my feeds and getting emotionally upset often.
"To everyone who feels like their heart has been ripped out of their chest, I feel the same. To everyone who is afraid of what happens next, I share your fears. But what we do next is important, and I need you in this fight with me.
As we confront a second Donald Trump presidency, we have two tasks ahead. First, try to learn from what happened. And then, make a plan. …"

@aby I will seem like an asshole, but this comment is genuine. While this might wery well be true, providing anecdotal evidence to support the notion that every (or most) white cis men are like this, and then immediately saying "This is not a debate", or "White, cis men need not comment" sounds toxic to me.
As we are dealing with anecdotes, I tend to say yes to all of my friends, including female ones.
The argument might very well be sound, but it's being handled poorly.
I had a funny post drafted up and everything, but ze German man pleasantly surprised me.
As chief retard king ambassador, PhD, I have ensured that NAS, clew, clubcyberia, decayable, DRC, eveningzoo, freeatlantis, FSE, gameliberty, gleasonator, KFCC, merovingian, mugicha, nyanide, poast, ryona, seal cafe, SPW, spinster, teci, and a bunch of names I don't recognize will soon be off ze list.
