Sure. Just saying this is federated and you don’t really control where this post ends up.
Comment on What Are People Still Doing on X?
Powderhorn@beehaw.org 1 month agoTo be honest, I just stick with Beehaw. I have a .world account (that I’ve not opened in months), but I really don’t make use of federation. I like that this feels more like an old-school site where you recognize most names and reference past interactions. Tech’s fetish for scale inherently means enshittification, whereas a small instance feels like a community.

That’s true of anything posted to the Web, though.

Yeah. On Twitter as well

I have a sh.itjust.works account that I use to join meme communities there and on .world + a few other instances. The comments are a cesspool but the memes are…reasonably dank?

I prefer unreasonably dank memes.

Disagree. I'm reading this on Mastodon, having subbed certain topics on Beehaw, and I'm finding federation to be the perfect way to participate in all my interests through one interface. #YourMileageMayVary

I still have my Reddit account(s) for niche areas as well as local news, but I’m an old fart and don’t much care for spending time exploring Lemmy to curate a larger feed after running into frustration on that front after the API imbroglio that led me here. If I want a firehose, Reddit does that just fine (for now). I come to Beehaw to read curated news and relax.
It’s certainly an advantage of the Fediverse that I can use it the way I like, as can you. There’s no “right” way to experience federation.
