Sorry, Mastodon, but until you improve your #searchengine so I can find people here WITH their correct address on Mastodon, then I can’t consider being a regular user. Just spent about 10 minutes searching and rechecking the address I was given multiple times. Never succeeded in finding them. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Mastodon may be a good way to share information, but it does not appear to be able to play an important role that the bird site excelled at.
The inability to build community, share tweets, retweet (toots - ugh), and interact with others easily on this site is a real detriment. I find myself using both sites now, despite a decline in the numbers of my longterm friends/contacts on Twitter. Very frustrating.

Not sure why, but I find it daunting to post (sorry, feel really silly saying ‘toot’) on mastodon. I don’t have the same inhibition on the bird site, but I’ve been tweeting & interacting with others there since 2009. I know other users on this site say it’s friendlier here, but I just don’t feel it yet. How do others find it? #TwitterRefugee

The Globe and Mail doesn’t pull its punches. Editorial slams Toronto Mayor (oops) Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s gutting of municipal democracy:
“Doug Ford is bad for democracy.”

I'm here but not posting anything yet (other than this). I"m still learning to find old friends from twitter and my other social media accounts on mastodon.

I'm looking for new connections too but finding the inability to search over other servers rather frustrating. I guess I need to be patient....
