Almost everything I was told was a given for the Fediverse when I first came over in—whenever it was that Musk bought Twitter—has turned out to be wrong.

I almost never use Content Warnings.

I talk about politics all the time.

I use hashtags occasionally but almost no one else does. It’s certainly not a gimme.

I boost posts I think I might have written.

I like posts I like.

I follow who I want to follow.
