It is beautiful. I hang out here way more than threads.

@pangmida I've never really been on social media for the most part lmfao
Joined the internet at large in 2017 (to make a long story short, let's just say 'strict parents' lmao), made a Facebook, made a Twitter six months before the Musk takeover, deleted them both, then kinda just didn't use more than my phone number and Discord to talk to friends and family :P

Same this is the only social media I use nowadays. Out of everything—FaceBook, Twitter, Instagram... it's a little writing site's forums. And Discord, but that's a chatting app, not SM.

It's where most of the people actually are.

@pangmida Yee the scariest part for me of actually trying to have a presence on social media is remembering to keep up with it lmfao
The internet moves so fast! I don't post for three days one time and one of my BlueSky mutuals DM me asking if I'm okay lmfao

That means people love the content you post and want more!
...or they have a parasocial relationship with you. Choose your poison. :)

@AlexRiven201 I understand. Multiple people warned me that I wouldn't succeed at my old job if I didn't constantly keep my LinkedIn up to date. They were right, but it's just so tiresome to have a social media account just to brag about work accomplishments.

Only some people get good interaction.

I really hope it's the former lmao
Tbqh I'm very afraid of the parasocial aspect of all this. I'm trying to be a serious writer at this point so I'm like... How do I even conduct myself? Purely corporate and professional? Do I hope I'm not annoying enough to check out my work and start demanding I set up proper tips or something? Or do I just silently drop my work on D2D and pray for the best?

Don't get me wrong, I'm still trying to be writing for fun, but my grandma demanded I send her a copy of some of my work when I told her I was writing (she's got a Master's in English so I figured she was going to give it back graded. She did - but it wasn't really about grammar or spelling or anything. And she even told me she thought I could get it published. So I'm trusting her on that lol
