Just heard @matzekult explain mastodon on @podfeet Allison Sheridan's tech show #chitchatacrossthepond https://www.podfeet.com/blog/2018/09/ccatp-565/ - sounds like an excellent alternative to other social media platforms.
After poking around and checking out some of the instances, #qoto seems like the place to be. Thanks for having me! #newbie
@apearlm Welcome! Happy to have you here!
@hashtaggrammar Thank you! Still getting my feet wet, but it's a great experience so far.
@apearlm Welcome! 😀
@matzekult Thank you, and thanks for taking the time to explain Mastodon so well. I also really enjoyed the episode of The Phileas Club with you and Allison.
@apearlm Thank you! Although both Allison and I were not all that happy with the Phileas Club episode because it was so much doom and gloom. But I guess you can't choose what's news 😅
@matzekult I think my favorite line was when Patrick said something like "When you listen to this show and realize everything is terrible and you want to die" (paraphrasing, but it's close) right before making his Patreon pitch.
@apearlm Hey, it's perfect advertising. You remembered it and that is all that counts! 😁
