I'm enjoying #mastodon more and more every day. Compared to #bluesky, which only provides a limited amount of features, this instance has granular control of the algorithmic impact of my own posts, explicit opt-in read receipts, and even mini-picture reactions! (I'm still holding out for #memoji support)
The biggest social media transformation is happening in our lives right now, and we shouldn't waste it on inferior platforms who are holding out features and ignoring their principles.
I hope that this trend continues to push out industry forward into making better software, for humans!
I’ve updated my #memoji today. Unfortunately my hair is less curly than it was (*). It’s also longer and and it’s whiter. I selected an older “age” face shape but the change is not visible as far as I can tell.

(*) every 8 years my hair structure goes from curly to straighter.
