   I think one of the downsides of Mastodon is that everyone here is pretty savvy so you lose track of how the rest of the world thinks and acts. You lose track of what “normal” looks and sounds like.

     @davidtoddmccarty I think that's accurate, although there's a part of me that hesitates to call it "normal." Don't ask me what I'd call it, but for the most part it doesn't feel like "normal" fits.

     @davidtoddmccarty That’s not news. No one said “majority” and “normal” were the same thing.

     @WarnerCrocker I’ve got news for you. They’re the majority. We’re the weirdos.

     @davidtoddmccarty How about this: the fediverse may be comparable to the proverbial 'Irish monks that saved Europe' after the fall of Rome? 🙂
