@smallcircles I see it as a busy city with cozy neighborhoods.
I generally live in my home feed, so I'm really only seeing and interacting with what I aim to follow and the various communities there.
Occasionally I'll look at the public timeline and see all the bustle and activity but will find something new to follow, like going downtown and finding a new restaurant or hangout spot. -

Pedestrian zoned street with a bunch of cafes, in the downtown area of a polluted city.
A refuge from hectic life then? An quiet oasis to escape the surrounding social media traffic and unwind a bit?

A cozy village with fiberoptic internet and a whole bunch of interesting people with fascinating expertise who retired here or something!

Like Meetpoint Station from CJ Cherryh's Pride of Chanur
@mastodonmigration @msbellows @smallcircles
I wore out my copy of "The Chanur Saga" anthology and had to duct tape it. "Chanur's Endgame" anthology is not easy to fine either!

@smallcircles @Tattooed_Mummy …a bustling convention about topics I don’t fully understand and I’m the only one not cosplaying.
@benjamincox @smallcircles @Tattooed_Mummy hot damn I hope you find your people here

@smallcircles To me the fediverse feels like an accidental but useful overlap of only-slightly-convergent universes – a region where aliens can go to communicate with each other before returning to their own dimensions.
(Really, that's how it feels. How else would you describe a place where antipodean flaneurs can hold convos with Dutch furries about toaster repair?)
I asked about the influences of Buddhist philosophy on Greek Philosophy and was told to read this book which has taught me a lot! I didn't inquire as to the furry or Netherlands status of the suggesting mastodon user but neither status would have changed the expertise I experienced!

@smallcircles I went with village, but it actually sirens. Sometimes it is more of a city, with much more traffic than I can reasonably follow

@oblomov @smallcircles @Tattooed_Mummy I’ve found some. If I were better at socialising, it would help.

@smallcircles
I experience the fediverse a bit like riding public transit: often you meet interesting people, occasionally you meet hostile people, sometimes you meet people in crisis, and you have a nodding acquaintence with some folks almost every time you ride. Most people are buried in their phones. You hear bits of conversations (sometimes a little, sometimes a lot), the infrastructure is uneven and often confusing, and every now and again there is a flood, storm, fight, or someone pulling a weapon. -

@smallcircles I hope you do a follow up survey for anyone who voted ghost town
It would be nice if we could help those people find their way or see what can be done in Masto to help

@smallcircles How is ghost town only at 4 % ? the lack of an algo mean i got a lot of things i don't like in my tl bc of hashtags i follow and only get 1 in 8 post that i actually like. The rest of the time it's really quiet. i stay here bc i like the project and there are people i like here but to follow the news from where im from and in the world i need X bc nothing gets recommended to me.
An algo is a tool that can be used for good and the lack of one is really big problem for normies -

Some type of con that was going on in a city I am visiting and I just turned a corner and there were all these people all dressed up some as a thing and some cosplaying.
People are speaking all types of shit and I'm sneaking off to look up the slang I don't get.
My friend turns to me and says "Holy shit, the geek level here is higher than the nerd quotient. Don't even get me started on the gender/orientation stuff." "This is a seriously abnormal group of people" -
