The true rival to X is not using social media at all. If you’re mad at your Skinner box, switching bubbles won’t improve your life.

I like going on Mastodon and seeing other people's indie games. It isn't the same as the potato chip / crack hit vibe of other social media, but it's nice.

Mastodon reminds me of the internet before people started doing dumb shit with social graphs.

You follow people because they will show you a cool rock, not because its a slot machine that pays out massive amounts of dopamine.
