@Solarspies Welcome. I'm new to mastodon and qoto as well, but I like the fact that qoto is small, and that the instance gives me an interesting timeline, and interesting people to read.
@mur2501 @ner Twitter and FB are run by megalomaniacs that prioritize profits over the public good. I was upset over the horrible cambridge analytica scandal, but Leon Skum has surpassed the depravity of Mark Suckerberg with his support of racist right wing philosophies. It seems like doing good is a foreign concept to those that run social media. This is why I am intrigued by Mastodon. The fact that no one billionaire controls the platform makes me hopeful that social media has a future.
