because #mastodon is real
i'm not just talking about markov chain chatbots, AI slop, mindless trolls working agendas, etc, on centralized corporate #socialMedia
i'm saying the plastic bullshit on such traditional social media creates an ethos of detachment and mindless consumption
rather than genuine human engagement
mastodon emphasizes that
sometimes it gets heated
but again: that's real, not the social climate of manufactured fake bullshit we see elsewhere
