Hi honey I'm home

I've been 'inhabiting' mastodon.social since about the beginning. I've often been frustrated by the limitations imposed by 500 characters of text.

It's just not enough to really express a literate view without splitting up a post among several posts.

Clearly, there are ways to circumvent the limitation, which illuminates it as a futile attempt to control the expression of others.

I know that was never the intention of Mastodon developers. I will reserve judgement as concerns Twitter.

Anyway, since the beginning of the 'great exodus' of mastodon.social users to their own community instances, I've been trying to sort out where I 'belong'.

Well, actually it just might be here :)
