I've been toying with having a professional-ish account on here for a while. I started on mastodon on nerdculture and it wasn't a good fit. So I moved over to Beige.Party where I am not very professional. So I'd like to keep it separate.
I'd like a similar vibe to Beige. Small, well moderated, nice people who don't take themselves too seriously. But that would make sense for a psychologist / academic in the non-profit space.
Appreciate any recs and boosts!
@tayfonay I've never really understood why instance matters. @CoachMark
@AlliFlowers I've been on 2 different instances and the experience is wildly different in terms of engagement. I look at my instance feed more often than others, it's a nice place that I can retreat to if I want to stay off larger feeds.
@tayfonay Interesting. Even when I first started and was on a big public instance, I never bothered with the local feed. I just carefully curate my follows. @CoachMark
Part of the beauty of the Fediverse I guess.
The end user gets to choose how they do it and at what instance they do it from.
Then again, there are pros and cons to everthing.
Likewise, my Home feed is usually plenty lively and interesting enough that it is quite satisfying. When it’s not, it’s usually because I been here too long and should really be doing something else anyway. 🤷♂️
@AlliFlowers great, I enjoy my local feed and would like to replicate that if I can 😊 @CoachMark
