important lesson i want to take from this place into anywhere else i go to now is that you curate the feed, brother

twitter really conditioned me into thinking that i needed to follow everyone because we met irl or we know each other through a mutual friend or whatever and like... i don't, actually. i don't need to do that. we can know each other irl and be good friends and i can just not follow you on some sites because i just want to have a certain browsing experience that you don't align with. and that's ok, it's nothing personal. not having a "follows you" badge on here is one of the most underrated lifesavers of the social media experience, man.

holy shit that's the missing piece i've been trying to think of. i had completely forgotten that other sites had 'follows you' badges because i was so used to not seeing them. and it made existing on cohost so, so much more peaceful.

no "follows you" badge and no follower count also means that i ended up following more peopleโ€”there's no pressure to keep following someone or the fear of "breaking a mutual follow", so i just followed all the pages that seemed interesting. it makes for a nice and varied feed
