Toot

Written by Mina No No No on 2025-01-18 at 13:12

Just some thoughts:

What's the point of talking crap about other platforms and their users?

Is preaching to the choir (the already convinced) so much fun?

Is it nice, to spit into what might be a new arrival's old digital home?

What's the point of telling we're better, instead of just being that?

@mina Yeah. its not helpful. A recent poll here suggested the majority of Mastodon users are also Linux users.

I think that implies Mastodon has a certain attraction that is not suitable for the majority of social media users

@mina Good questions! Criticizing platforms is one thing, putting people on the spot is another.

@mina

What's the point of talking crap about other platforms and their users?

If you just mean comments of the 'Platform X sucks and is run by a giant dickhead' variety, I agree. But some part of my mind reads this as objecting to any critical commentary about the business of online platforms. That I strongly disagree with.

Is preaching to the choir (the already convinced) so much fun?

I wouldn't assume that everyone listening here, or on the web, is part of "the choir".
