Starting over here isn't as daunting as you might think.
To get where you were there, you had to battle bad actors and constantly fight algorithms that work to suppress you. That stuff doesn't happen here.
There's also a lot of baggage that comes with large accounts, and you're leaving all of that behind. For some folks, that can be a huge relief.
@kel yeah, I'm likely going to be more selective here, than I was there. I allowed a lot of random followers who "liked" a political post or reply, but never actually engaged beyond that
@NapsAndSarcasm I've been collecting mine for five years. I'll probably go through and purge a bunch at some point. Honestly, it makes me a little uncomfortable.
