I’m really happy with it. People here are mostly thoughtful, smart, and post interesting content. Less fighting, less toxicity, no shills in political discussions because it’s not big enough, no corporate astroturfing (the closest we come to that is adderall spam ha ha).
It feels healthier to me than reddit, which I think I had probably been addicted to. Being on Kbin I never have to run out of content because of the “microblogs” section which has Mastodon, and my multireddit style “collections” (like this news one). But I also find it easier to put my phone down.
Also I find it hilarious that although I do still see occasional screeching about US liberals, over here it’s because the poster wants “the libs” to be more left wing not more right wing.
