Another thing I realized yesterday is that I've been holding back on fully embracing Mastodon as my social media home. I've felt so burned by #Facebook monetizing its users that my profile there is filled with fake info, and I rarely post there anymore...especially anything personal. I basically only keep the account around to check in on friends and family.
Here, I don't feel like a product; I feel comfortable opening up a bit more. It's been taking some adjustment, to say the least!
