Part of the reason Mastodon has the "market" share that it does is because very few people even mention the alternatives and too many people conflate Mastodon with the fediverse as if Eugen Rochko invented all of this.
Let us agree to disagree.

Iβd like to know your thoughts.@damon I mean, Windows has the lion's share of PC users too but I'm sure Mac users would start to get a bit irritated if pundits and everyone else only talked about how Windows is the only game in town.

Iβd like to know your thoughts.@damon I would recommend most people stay away if I'm being honest. It's way too easy for a small minority of people to make a lot of people's life a living hell here, and until that's addressed I don't see things getting much better.
Also, the fact that Mastodon continues to be thrown about as if it, and the fediverse, are one and the same, is nauseating. -
Joyce Vance looks at a scheme that has come to light in Georgia, in which Trump supporters are plotting to monkey-wrench the 2024 election by refusing to Trump is trying to create a legal path to do what he failed to declare a Kamala Harris win legitim...@wdlindsy @StrangeCulprits Yeah but neither Ossoff or Warnock would have won their seats from Fulton County voters alone. The whole State is becoming more progressive, not just metro-Atlanta.
Look at the trial down in Savannah where those white people murdered that black man for jogging through their neighborhood.
In addition, Macon is much more progressive now than it was in the late 90s when I moved there. Macon.
Gwinnett used to be bright red and Gwinnett is pretty much blue.
Same for my county, Cobb County. Sam Nunn, David Perdue... all from Cobb County. Cobb is pretty blue now.
My old district, 6th Congressional District in Cobb was the home to Tom Price, Karen Handel, Johnny Isakson, and Newt Gingrich and we kicked Price's ass out and elected Lucy McBath, the mother of Jordan McBath. You may recall he was the young man that was shot and killed in Jacksonville, Florida for sitting in the passenger seat of his friend's car, parked at a convenience store, and a racist white dude shot and killed him because he said their music was "too loud". (That guy is in prison thank god.)
McBath is a STRONG supporter of gun regulations.
And she's a Democrat. In Cobb County. And we elected her.
(Sadly the Georgia legislature gerrymandered the maps so she would lose her seat.)
My point is... it's not just Atlanta and it's even the historically very conservative parts of Georgia that are now a lot more progressive than Republicans like.
So I'm remaining hopeful that Georgia stays purple or turns even more blue this year. -

I lived in Georgia (Cobb County) for 25 years and I've seen Georgia get more and more progressive over the past 10 years.
Which is why Trump wants to cripple elections there. -

Thereβs a thing that happens as you get older, where your taste buds change for like no reason.@deadsuperhero It might be how they're prepared too. I used to hate vegetables as a kid because neither my father nor my mother could cook very well and they always assassinated any vegetable they put in a pan, pot, oven, or grill.
Now, as an adult, I fucking love all the vegetables I hated as a kid because it turns out when you go out to eat chefs and cooks usually know how to cook things properly.
And then I learned how to cook things. Properly.
Game changer.
