I joined #mastodon last week, on a whim, with no idea what to expect
Minutes later, I was welcomed by @dillyd which has never happened on any other platform and was a wonderful introduction. So I posted a couple pictures of my #cats, and found, to my surprise, people reacting and interacting
Maybe it's because I'm not fighting an algorithm, or maybe I just found a place where folks truly appreciate cats. Either way, I'm very happy to be here, and I hope you're prepared for more cat pictures
@rufustheduck welcome to the fediverse comrade!

@rufustheduck @dillyd We don’t appreciate cats, they’re our overlords, praise the cat.

@rufustheduck @dillyd I estimate that a good 30% of Fedizens are basically the social media managers for their cats.
@beecycling I suspect I'm part of that 30%
-
Glad to have you on board.
@k8quinn good to be here!
-
@beecycling I suspect I'm part of that 30%
@rufustheduck @beecycling "The Internet is made of cats..."

@beecycling @rufustheduck @dillyd that is quite possible.

Welcome aboard! Algorithms are for chumps. Nice cat. I would not follow me if I were you. I am truly unruly.
Happy tooting!

@rufustheduck
Cat pictures are the mastodonians' calling card. Welcome.
@dillyd@pthane sounds like my kind of place

@rufustheduck @dillyd all cats always welcome here!

@rufustheduck here there's fun and dialogue
Soon you'll have a network of people. Feels much like early twitter to me.Someone already told you some tips and tricks?
@Frieke72 I have been pointed in a few useful directions. Hartstikke bedankt

@rufustheduck @dillyd That’s a happy cat!
@SeasonsChange she has a big monkey making sure she has everything she ever wants

@rufustheduck @dillyd welcome to the fediverse!
we may be quite partial to cats, yes

@mirabilos @SPECR_cat NOW i do!
@rufustheduck @SPECR_cat he’s well worth a visit, if one’s in the area (for me, “in the area” last year meant “I have a few hours in London before my Eurostar back home”)
