@grubz I've grown to appreciate the lack of traditional social media things such as likes and follower lists on Micro.blog as well. I thought it would bother me, but it's not a bug, it's a feature. Anyway, I'll keep seeing you around here. :-)

@larand I hear ya! Feels less... busy over here than traditional social media a lot of the time, but maybe that's a good thing too. And same to you! I'm not going anywhere šŸ˜Œ

@grubz

Like maybe Iā€™m just such a hipster I only use small batch, micro-brewed social media.

Oh my god, This is precisely how I feel about Micro.Blog sometimes! šŸ¤£

I was never good at clout chasing on Twitter anyway so I don't mind the slower pace of M.B. I write my stuff and if it takes someone's fancy thats' great. If not, ah well.

@grubz We'll have moved onto something even more hipster by then šŸ¤­

"Oh you're still on Micro.Blog on the internet are you? I just carve my posts into a tree 10 miles deep in the forest now šŸ¤“"

@grubz i'm glad you're still around on here. My Bsky might as well be deactivated with the amount of times I actually am on there. I also can relate to a lot of the things on here. Instant gratification is my downfall.

Please post funny and interesting pictures. I love seeing those.

@jedda mastodon was the hardest to quit! I had been there since I quit twitter a couple years ago. I like it here though. It's slower at times but it kinda scratches the same itch and then some. And I can just lurk on Reddit or Lemmy when I need some doomscrolling material lol
