Think the main difference between the two platforms is that on Twitter when you make a joke you get one haha and two death threats, whereas on here you get one haha and someone earnestly explaining the 6th century origins of the specific road that particular chicken crossed. Yet to decide which is more distressing.
The amount of people replying to explain that death threats are actually more of an issue than people sharing history facts is 1. the point of the joke and 2. going to make me smother my phone with a pillow
*gently holding the faces of people on Mastodon who take every joke or light-hearted comment extremely literally or personally* why are you like this. why can't we have fun.
@Ciaraioch The terminally offended are making their way to Masto. Won't last, as it's "all too confusing" etc.
