     @sharan @joanwestenberg I have come to realize and grudgingly accept it's an addiction and that's my only excuse. Places like Mastodon have a LOT of benefits though, high among them is interacting with mostly awesome people who are happy to share their knowledge. It's still a good place for networking!

     @killyourfm @joanwestenberg excellent writeup. These are the very same reasons I am writing blogs. I still struggle with the urge to make social media posts, from time to time but I luckily give up more easily these days.

     The way @joanwestenberg breaks down the stark differences between a social media post and a blog post - AND the intent they carry - was masterfully written.

     This entire article is masterfully written. It will inspire you. And hopefully make you consider taking her advice!
