I’m changing the way I use Mastodon. Not that you should care. But for the curious (like, 2 of you), a 🧵: I am not new to Mastodon, and I’ve entered and exited the Fediverse at least 2x before my latest self-induced banishment. I run (read: pay for) an instance. I’ve used half a dozen different clients. I’m no developer. I’m quick on the ban hammer. I don’t give a single shit about growth hacks, influencers, or purists. (No shade to those who do. Well, that’s a lie. All the shade.) 1/n
