@smallcircles once you block mastodon.social, it's much better. Too many mental children who don't understand conversation and communication. Too many people still trying to pretend this is Twitter and trying to become "popular" by posting divisive, misleading, or completely fabricated information.

A cozy village that has a too many idiots sometimes. But at least they're funny idiots.@OohOkayKay @smallcircles
Yes, all of us have mirrors, whatever our label is...

@darby3 in a good way, though? In an extracting-myself-from-the-ratrace casual walk kinda way perhaps?

@smallcircles I experience it as a village that I can see is cozy for the people who truly belong in it, i.e., tech nerds with comfortable bank balances. For me, it's a nice place to visit, but it's slightly uncomfortable because many people just assume that everyone has the same access to tech and money. Too often, advice is given that would be helpful only to people who have high-speed internet, lots of gadgets, and disposable income.

@smallcircles More like a train station or airport. I'm passing through and see many other people I wouldn't otherwise. Some people spend much more time here than others and it shows.

@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. -

A refuge from hectic life then? An quiet oasis to escape the surrounding social media traffic and unwind a bit?

@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.

@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!
