Is anyone using Mastodon as their primary social media and is it working for you?

[tedvangeest@mstdn.social]

@LianaBrooks 2 x yes

[clarkiestar@mas.to]

@LianaBrooks yes and yes. The lack of algorithm is bliss. My adhd was very prone to addiction with the other socials. The lack of fascists on here is also bliss!

[klappspatack@troet.cafe]

@LianaBrooks Yes. Since 6 years. Before Mastodon I used google+. I have never been on the big social media platforms. So I don't know what I'm missing out.

[maciek33@wspanialy.eu]

@LianaBrooks double yes

[peterlg@theblower.au]

@LianaBrooks

Mastodon is my *only* social media platform, and it works perfectly for me.

[jak@defcon.social]

@LianaBrooks I tried to reopen Reddit after two months without and I’ve been overwhelmed by the flood of suggested communities, commercials and post from subreddits I don’t remember I subscribed.

So yes: mastodon is more than enough for me

[janl@narrativ.es]

@LianaBrooks yup

[kentnavalesi@mstdn.social]

@LianaBrooks
Yes and yes. I feel like I've finally found my people.

[melissabeartrix@gives.hugz.online]

@LianaBrooks

Yes yes yes

More than I expected

@LianaBrooks Check my profile.

(I also don't use Facebook or Instagram or Bluesky)

[androcat@toot.cat]

@LianaBrooks Yes and yes.

[jess@blop.social]

@LianaBrooks Yes and yes.

[kinsale42@mstdn.games]

@LianaBrooks it's my primary scroller and yes it replaces twitter quite well for me. The only thing missing (the Overwatch community), I can currently get from discord as a secondary (maybe 30-40 folks max).

[kinsale42@mstdn.games]

@LianaBrooks the cats here are just as good as anywhere else

[earthshaking@mastodon.eternalaugust.com]

@LianaBrooks yes, and yeah "I guess". I still miss cohost dot org, though. That was the best place, for me.

[aoanla@hachyderm.io]

@LianaBrooks if by "primary" you mean "the one you actually post on" then yes (for micro blogging style stuff at least).

It's working very well so far.

[jonathankoren@sfba.social]

@LianaBrooks yes and yes.

I have no interest in participating on corporate controlled social media. That’s been a fool’s errand for past 20 years

[joacim@mastodon.melin.org]

@LianaBrooks
Yes.
Yes.

[beadsland@beige.party]

@LianaBrooks

Only social media. Sufficient.

[heinragas@mublog.nl]

@LianaBrooks When I left Twitter in November 2022, I got my own server and I haven't looked back since. Yes and yes.
