@CC_StormWatch hey! I'm so glad to see you over here!
@Rubyslippahs Yes! I'm not too active here now but know things are getting insane over on Twitter thanks to the crybaby in charge...
@CC_StormWatch I cringe every time I have to log on over there. Love Mastodon, though. Much nicer experience!
@Rubyslippahs Yeah, unfortunately the reach is lacking here.
@Rubyslippahs True, but beyond our community for the general public, it is a challenge.
@CC_StormWatch it is, but we didn't build any following overnight. Well, I kinda did with the long COVID account, but that's not the norm! Lol
@Rubyslippahs Yeah one issue is that I need as broad of an audience as possible. Without Twitter, my best source would be connections with local TV stations and there aren't enough of them right now at that high level for me to reach.
@CC_StormWatch well. You've certainly come to the right place! Have you used any of the sites to find Twitter friends yet? Between the two of us, we probably have most of the US covered.
@CC_StormWatch it gets better. I joined in October, and at that point, none of us knew what was going on, so it was very much "everyone follow everyone!" And my feed is so diverse now!
