This piece in The Atlantic is excellent and frames so much of what I’ve been trying to say about how Mastodon and Twitter are different. I’ve found Mastodon to be great for social *networking* and bad for social *media.*And that is my favorite part of being here. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2022/11/twitter-facebook-social-media-decline/672074/

@mike Man, this right here: "The toxicity of social media makes it easy to forget how truly magical this innovation felt when it was new. From 2004 to 2009, you could join Facebook and everyone you’d ever known—including people you’d definitely lost track of—was right there, ready to connect or reconnect. The posts and photos I saw characterized my friends’ changing lives, not the conspiracy theories that their unhinged friends had shared with them."
