Here’s a quickie post to advise that I’ve found my way to another Mastodon instance. This time, I’m on the Big Kahuna itself, mastodon.social, as @BryceWray@mastodon.social.
This makes my fourth primary Mastodon location in the last few months:
- I started with (1.) mastodon.technology but it went away, so I moved to (2.) Fosstodon.
- Then, three months later to the day — after deciding the stuff I follow, boost, and post might not be a good fit for the local timelines of the great folks at Fosstodon — I slid over to (3.) the more general mstdn.social. The truth is that I actually wanted to come straight to mastodon.social at that time but, because the Big Kahuna is so big, there are times when it’s just flat-out not accepting new accounts; so I stuck with mstdn.social for a few weeks and waited until I could make this jump.
- And now, here I am on (4.) mastodon.social.
Incidentally: although I’d used the BryceWrayTX handle on the other instances, mainly because that had long been my Twitter handle, I’m using just BryceWray on mastodon.social because, in fact, I’d had a mastodon.social account with that handle some time back before deleting it; and, as I learned today, that locked it up permanently, so I went TX-less in this new account. (I assure my fellow Texans I meant no offense in doing so.)
My exploration of the FediVerse continues.
