who am i kidding nothing has really changed since 2017 we're still giving non-answers to question posts and trying to explain why that is a correct thing to do
social media is anything but and mastodon has not ever been and will not ever be better than twitter or any similar contrived microblogging platform for as long as it retains the favourite button
and i don't mean in a mansplaining kind of way or "how do i do x in y" "use z instead"
i mean "how do i do x" "rando favourited your post"
like it's just non-sequiturs. i'm in a don hertzfeldt skit
