I have to say I'm really surprised with how quickly my follower count and the #QOTO user count exploded in just a little over 2 months.

When I first came to the fediverse the very first thing I did was start my own server (qoto) because I wanted a place where I could talk freely (free speech), without the facism of censorship. Honest sincere debate, something I felt was lacking from other nodes in the fediverse.

I never intended to draw a crowd, or even other members on my server. It was for me and for one friend, that's it. But somehow in the 2 - 3 months I've gained thousands of followers many of whom have come to join our family on QOTO.

What I dont get is how. What did I do that was so special that got me 3k followers in a few months. I have to think its more than just being a nice guy.

My guess: people, like me, crave a place they can be honest, where a difference of opinion is met with mature respectful debate, not censorship and hatred. I hope we have created that here!

Tell me what you think! I'd love to hear everyones opinion on what brought them over to QOTO or even why you decided to follow me.

Interesting fact of the day: if you put butter on an ant he, along with every other ant in the colony, will think he is dead. He will either walk over to the ant graveyard himself or be carried there by another ant. The ant will usually stay there until the butter wears off.

The reason for this is that butter is 35% Oleic Acid. This is the Fatty Acid responsible for triggering this response.
