I wanted to use mastodon, but I haven't even used twitter in years, so then I realized I just don't social media that way anymore (or much at all for that matter).

I got it and I'm trapped in a weird bubble of shit that doesn't really interest me and I don't like microblogging I think

[-] Frostwolf@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Same. @squizzy, I don't like microblogging in general either. I was raised in the golden era of forums (the days of phpBB and vBulletin). My twitter account hasn't been touched for years now.

I mostly used twitter for checking trending topics for news

I was finally super duper permabanned from Reddit, and decided to give up. No more workarounds, new accounts, new emails, spoofing MAC addresses, multihop VPNs... And I've got to say, I have gotten more done in the past few weeks than in the last year combined.

What the hell did you do?!

I got permabanned for canning a right wing troll a loser. Apparently I had repeatedly violated the rules ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] anarchy79@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I posted unpopular opinions. Perpetually for over a decade.

I got permabanned for shitting on russians (I am a Polander so it's my default behavior).

I never used Twitter save for occasionally hearing about tweets, but I have been enjoying using Mastodon because in practice it's basically just a way for me to have a feed of cool astronomy pictures.

[-] Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

I found cool astronomy pictures on Reddit, and some now on lemmy! Cheers for random cool pictures of space.
