"The Peripheral" on Amazon is pretty good.
I'm hooked.
Going to say this here and over there.
I've followed 84 people on my mastodon account.
The level of engagement is equal or better here than it is over there.
I don't think I'd miss twitter if I were to nuke my account.
This happened in less than a week.

This is a crazy number.
That's a 48.7% increase in one week.
Is it any wonder things got bogged down a little bit?
But in the end, it was handled well.

Personally, I think putting an emphasis on which server, or "instance", you're on is a bit overblown. But if you're interested in trying one, here's a very small (11 users) instance you might want to look into:

Maybe a bit over the top.
But it reminds me of why we're making the move.

Hello fellow Mastodonians. I am:
- A land use planner that makes extensive use of GIS tools.
- Currently employed by my local, upstate NY county as Senior Planner.
- Adjunct Instructor at Marist College, teaching 2 GIS courses, one per semester
- Increasingly involved with local sustainabilty efforts and "Climate Smart Communities"
All are welcome to follow me. But, I will probably only follow back if most of your posts relate to the above and have a positive tone.

I thought I would stay active on both platforms.
But that's becoming increasingly doubtful.
And we're only into day 3.
Not sure why Bill's link shows up at the bottom. That wasn't put there by me. Must be a mastodon thing.
A rather intimidating presence. 🙂
