Are you originally from beehaw? I've seen you defending them many times and I almost always agree with your points. Keep up the good work ๐Ÿซก

Nope. I've never actually directly been to the site.

I just stumbled into Mastodon last April to watch people flee Twitter, and fell in love with the whole distributed social concept.

The Internet was a digital anarchist space when I first encountered it in the 90s, and that's what I want it to be again. And the right to disengage is tied up in that.

Cool. You're a valuable contributor and I hope you stick around. I was also hoping for an opportunity to apologize to beehaw on behalf of my server ๐Ÿคท

This exchange right here, sir.

Wholesome. Thank you.
