I don't get that platform. I just signed up for mastodon and am not sure I'm feeling that either.

I feel like these Twitter-style sites are just ...like... Keyboard warriors. It's just smug post after smug post.

It honestly creeps me out. Like I see all these popular political posts by profile icons I recognize.... But every post is just whinging...

Who are these people and why do they get popularity and even mentioned on the news as truth when their posts have no sources and are just bullshit political emotion. Then you read a news article the next "Twitter is cancelling...." Because there was one post about with someone acting like a dick.

I'm with you. Lots of randoms giving their opinions on something that other randoms can show their support for? Huh... alright, I guess.
