@stux Immediately after the takeover by Elon Musk!

@stux@mstdn.social

Just realised that I am active since the last 5 and something years.

I joined Diaspora a long time ago but since 2019 I started again.

@stux

Just over three years - and very grateful that my account was still here after I had been absent for > 6 months

@stux joined just this year

@stux and it’s a disappointment

@stux, f@#$k, we must cancel the vote! I made a mistake; it will be over a year in April.

@stux The day of Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter, when he insulted former Twitter employees.

@stux since 2020

@stux
hmm, what was happening about 3 years ago that so many folks joined the fediverse?

@stux

For about as long as I have been running Rogue Project's Friendica which is just over a year.

@stux

I turned 3 years old on 2026-01-21 🥳

@stux

November '22 wave here.

@stux Since Musk bought Twitter

Actually slightly before so about 3ish years

I've also changed instance so this account is a bit younger

@stux Depends on what you mean with active. I joined over three years ago, but I was only lurking and reading posts in the first year and a half. Only after that I really started posting stuff (which weirdly coincides with getting my HRT. Go figure!).

@stux
One year on the 23rd.

@stux can't vote from friendica, but came over with the #gplusrefugee wave in early (march/april) 2019 converting to diaspora ..... later then switching to multi-protocol friendica.

@rupert Nop .. no real majority on your side.

@pattykimura @stux I have been on two servers that quit. It happens, unfortunately. But seeing as I don't want to start my own, I can hardly blame them I'm very happy with my current one, hope it stays a long time.

@hackbyte Perhaps just a majority of the ones who'll vote in the first hour of a poll like this

@hackbyte @stux

It does not matter what type of Instance you are on. If it federates then you have been on the #Fediverse. To be completely honest, if Mastodon was the only choice to be on the Fedi, I would not be here. I really do not like the micro-blogging format. That is why I never had or used Twitter.
