I haven't said it in awhile but it's worth saying, this place has changed my life.

Before Fedi, I never imagined social media as a way to actually connect with people in a meaningful way. On the other sites, I got followed by bots and barely ever had an interaction beyond 1 amazing human that thought it was a good part of his day to interact with me. That person happened to be Tommie Earl Jenkins, the actor that played Die Hardman in Death Stranding.

I miss talking to him, but Fedi has TONS of nice people just like him, so it suits me better.

I just wish people wouldn't try to change things that don't need changing and fix the things that are actually broken.๐Ÿ˜”

I love this place. Let's make changes for the better of it. Not just because you want it to be changed.

I get much more response and interaction to my comments here. My old comments will still get responses weeks later and I love that people still see things that are posted more than a few hours ago. Comments don't get hivemind swarmed with downvotes. It's great.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live Only until the bots figure out we are here and start "their thing".

@bluGill@fedia.io ?๐Ÿคจ

There's plenty of bots on Fedi and there's no way to ensure yourself protected from bots, almost anywhere on the internet unfortunately.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live so far the evil ones are not noticable. They are coming I'm sure.
