@Em0nM4stodon I knew it glad I left BlueSky since last Sept or August I don’t remember but I joined Mastodon made my life better.
@Em0nM4stodon left #bluesky about a year ago. Now only on #fediverse -- #mastodon and #diaspora, as well as #linkedin for commercial survival.
If there were a way to prospect for #infosec consulting clients on the fediverse only, I'd quit linkedin at machine speed. almost.
@Em0nM4stodon I second that sentiment!
@Em0nM4stodon I did and it felt awesome!
@Em0nM4stodon Wow. I have been off most other platforms since September, so I had no idea this was happening. This makes me want to delete my Bluesky account, I might as well, I think I have posted once in the last 4-5 months. No use for it anymore.
@Em0nM4stodon Ok, I just deleted my Bluesky account. I'll see if I can get used to Mastodon
@zach_cyberwolfox @Em0nM4stodon Welcome (back?)!
I’ve found @FediTips very helpful.
@aprilfollies @zach_cyberwolfox
Welcome Zach 👋
There's lots of help for new and returning people on the website at https://fedi.tips (especially the section at the top of the page labelled "Quick Start").
Also please feel free to ask if you have any specific questions 🙂
Also, poke around in the settings a bit and you may notice some improvements since last time you were on Mastodon, especially if it's been a couple years.
@Em0nM4stodon was there something in particular that happened over there today?
@Em0nM4stodon glad to be here with like minded folks
@Em0nM4stodon
I should just go through my history and boost the last time I welcomed them. 😏
@Em0nM4stodon is it that ice is there now? Or is it something else as well?
I feel kind of stupid asking the question I just wanted to know if there was something else that I was missing
@Em0nM4stodon What happened on Bluesky?
@Em0nM4stodon Holy fuck. Thanks. Glad I'm here.
@Em0nM4stodon
Well, there you go.
Only just made a Bluesky account, thinking it would help me promote my books a little farther.
Felt kinda uncomfortable with it, to be honest, but saw it as an obligation.
But nope. You gave me the perfect excuse to get and stay off.
Me and my 9 measly followers won't make that big of a difference, but I'm gone.
Readers on the Fedi are better, anyway 😜
@amPennyfeather if it makes you feel any better, I had 1100 followers on Bluesky but I was rarely posting there because of their weird algorithms. I’d get 1-2 interactions at best, it felt like skeeting into the void. The Fediverse is so much better and more human. I’ve built so many amazing friendships on here 💖
So glad to hear you're happy here. Masto is by the people for the people, and it shows.
@_elena @Em0nM4stodon
I totally agree! The quality of interaction is so much better here.
@_elena @amPennyfeather @Em0nM4stodon
You are one of the best ambassadors we have Elena!

Thanks for all you do to promote the Fedi!
@TCMuffin thank you Jayne 🥰 ❤️ I plan to take my fediverse advocacy to the next level this coming year. I love this community so much!
@mastodonmigration awww thank you for the kind words! 😭 🥰
and I'm super grateful for your advocacy in this space and illuminating posts ❤️
@amPennyfeather Let's promote your books here then!
✨
@Em0nM4stodon
Oh, I am. Don't worry lol
@Em0nM4stodon Was thinking about joining but as it happens changed my mind.....
What did I miss with bluesky? other then no interactions and tooting into the void?
@Em0nM4stodon @bazurk thanks to my block list I was already blocking when I learned it existed
enough said. I was one of the first 60k to sign up. Even linked my domain. Time to delete my account.
Thanks for the heads up.
I'll leave this up for a day or two just for exposure then delete the account.
@bazurk @Em0nM4stodon This is me. I still have my account, but really not sure if/when I will be coming back.

@numb_comfortably @Em0nM4stodon
I will not be coming back. There is a line in the sand right now and someone at bluesky crossed it and it even though I am only one person. It cost them my support.
@bazurk This is excellent, thank you for doing this 
No need to thank me. Its time we all need to stand up for our communities.
Stand up for everyone in our communities.. not just the native born Americans.
