It's time I admitted this. Hell is half-empty & half the devils are here.
I've run this Mastodon instance since 2019. This server is lovely. Mastodon's Federated timeline has now become what I used to avoid Twitter for.
Ironically, I can't shut it off, because as an admin, stemming the toxic firehose is literally my job.
You want to know the irony? I stayed away from Twitter from its inception until 2020, when I joined Twitter to engage in conversations with the authors I'm narrating in my audiobook. To my delight, I discovered Twitter's algorithm seems to work well to surround me with what I want.
Twitter is where I go to escape Mastodon.
@matt Oof. Well, thank you for stemming the toxic firehose.
@matt Are you wanting to hand off that admin job?
@skipfordj I would be willing to do that. Are you expressing interest? If so, I should bring Paul Keyes into that conversation, since he's a co-admin.
@matt Interest, yes. Unsure if I have the chops, but definitely interest.
