While I would love people to come over to mastodon (or mastodon adjacent) I personally think this is a step in the right direction. Having more fediverse adjacent platforms makes it easier for people to communicate in a much less platform specific conglomeration.

Mastodon is broken as fuck for me. I don't know if it's my instance, or the country I'm in, or what. The app mostly just spins and hangs. It's been like this for a year. I've never been able to see who other people are following, which is something I like to do to discover new content. I've never been able to view videos that people post. I joined in 2020 and I'm probably just going to delete my account.

Before that, try joining mas.to and using Tusky. I've never had an issue.

thanks for the recommendation. i suspect some of the issues are instance related
