I have seen a lot of warm and welcoming advice posts for new Mastodonians, but I also keep seeing very condescending ones. “You won’t be spoon fed here like on Twitter,” and the like.

Admonitions to be proactive, engage, and follow freely are good and helpful, and slams on Twitter are completely understandable, but let’s not berate people who have done a good thing—come to check out Mastodon—by talking down to them like they’re helpless, entitled babies.

Just to be clear, if this is the kind of post you have made, I’m not tone-policing you.

I’m saying you’re being an ass to our new neighbors and telling you to knock it off.
