Nows and Forevers

A lot of the people I’ve been following have been jumping to Post and to Mastadon lately after Twitter’s slow-motion implosion. Today, I became one of them.
To be fair, I’ve had the invitation for a couple of weeks. Just with the holidays and also the aggravation with trying to learn a new social media network (hey, I’m old), I wasn’t as enthusiastic as I was when I started with Facebook and Twitter back in 2008 and 2009.
Mastadon seemed like a little too much than what I could do today. I’ve read about it but I decided against carrying through with it, at least until I can figure out more about it. It sounds a little too complicated.
Post, I did within 15 minutes.
I don’t know much about Post. It seems like an interesting platform, and maybe it’ll take off. It won’t be the same, at least right now, as Twitter. But it seems to be sort of between Twitter and a straight up blog, like this one, and I might as well give it a try.
So I did.
Not that it’s that much right now. I had to ask on Facebook if there was anyone that I followed who could point me in the right direction. I have found a few, but I don’t have any followers yet.
That’s OK.
