When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

Yes, to put my money where my mouth is.

In early 2022, a few months prior to the first rumors Elon Musk might acquire Twitter, I left both Twitter and Reddit for the Fediverse, making it a point to contribute a tiny bit of the content and interaction that help platforms reach critical mass.

In case you're wondering, I left Twitter because the algorithms had made me essentially invisible. There was no point posting or interacting there.
