       After 1 week on #Mastodon, the biggest difference I notice compared to #Twitter is the way each network makes me feel.Twitter:Open, scroll…“Why are people so horrible to each other?”Mastodon:Open, scroll…“Wow! There are so many interesting people in the world! I want to know more of them.”I sense being here is changing my perspective of social media. #TwitterMigration

       @Sheril this was how the entire internet used to be.  Yes, I'm that old.

       @Politico Me too & I agree. Mastodon reminds me of the early days of being on online forums & blogging.

       @Sheril it's like coming up for a breath of fresh air, reminds me of how Twitter used to be in the first 3-4 years.

       @Sheril It really does feel like 10 years ago, like a comprehensive reboot.There are glitches! And am sure there will be problems down the road, with real identity for instance, and with people's demands that it be Like Twitter Evn If It's Not. (See: QTs.)But right now it's so refreshing.

       @Sheril I joined Twitter in 2007, and it was amazing back then. I loved it there. Then I did lose interesr in 2010-2011. It felt a bit more stale. I think Mastodon will also have it’s own issues down the line, but I also think we should enjoy this freshness vibe as long as it is there. Meet new people, be curious, and try for as long as we can to see the others as Individuaks, not part of the numbers. For me, it is like youtube: «Creating videos for 10 friends» vs «I want 100K subscribers.»✨

       @Sheril I have a slight anxiety that the difference is actually the people, not the platform.

       @Sheril Human networks often build around "super cells", people that have lots of connections. Big platforms with suggestion algorithms tend to amplify this. Super cells' communication is often more "one way street". "Everybody knows the monkey, but the monkey knows nobody ."In smaller platforms without suggestion algorithms are easily more equals and "grassroots".
