Been roaming the Land where Mastodons roam for about a year now. Here’s a few thoughts on why and how I use it and why. I’m glad @Gargron and gang made this possible.

I had just set out to write a massive love letter to ActivityPub and the Fediverse when @WarnerCrocker dropped this cool summation of his findings after spending a year over here with us on the Wooly Mammoth side of town. It kinda mirrors my feelings to a tee, and moreover goes into how it’s not hard to use nor follow and understand, its more because its inherently different and most folks are into instant gratification, FOMO, and usually prefer posing as a pioneer rather than doing the hard work of actually being the first kid on the block in a different part of town.

Read his take first, then look out for mine coming later this week.
