Every time I try my typical effortposting on other platforms I'm quickly reminded of why I hate other platforms.
Seeing people's posts with their unfiltered thoughts, getting positive feedback for my various effortposts, and especially getting comments from people whom are clearly engaging with the post and considering what I'm actually saying, comments that are thought provoking and sometimes end up leading to me effortposting again just because it's a really interesting train of thought, it's a really fulfilling way to communicate.
I follow and am followed with all kinds of people with all kinds of lives and all kinds of opinions, and we can't all always agree on everything. Even in disagreement, the level of discourse I get with people is fantastic. I feel like even when we disagree we're trying to learn from each other and treat each other like humans trying to understand the world in good faith instead of avatars of an ideology.
Thanks, everyone. It means a lot having a cool place to engage with people and ideas for real.
