It's taken a while to figure out exactly what my problem is...

Twitter is a faceless corporation. I felt free to tweet about anything

I have mathematics I want to toot about and I want to follow many mathematicians. So I chose mathstodon.xyz

But now I don't feel free to toot about, say, the embarrassing incident last week when I accidentally conned Trader Joe's out of a bottle of Bailey's and then rubbed salt into the wound. Feels like I'm wasting the time of very serious mathematicians

@dpiponi Come on over to qoto.org. You can post latexmath, except you have to wait for @freemo to fix it, lol, if you actually want it to display right. And almost everything else goes. And most of the alt-libs and alt-cons block qoto, so you don't have to worry about pissing any of them off, well unequally anyway.

@ambihelical @dpiponi this is why I set up an account on qoto and not on xyz. I am a mathematician but I mostly post on general topics. when I do want to post about math I use hashtags. But even qoto feels a bit too specialized when I post about books, music or politics.
