Look, I love the fediverse but I am realistic in that for the forseeable future it will 100% be the Linux of social networks, with everything that implies.
And the reason I am here and not on bsky or threads is not because I think it's somehow better or more virtuous (in many ways, it's worse!) or because I think this place is any less likely to collapse or turn to shit than any other social network I've ever been on.
It's because all the other platforms are really bad for my mental health 🤷🏻♀️
