Mastodon is where I've been spending a lot of time, too. I've really, really
been enjoying it and the concept. I'm on a couple of focus-specific servers
with a few different logins, and then see the general feed when I want it.

I'm also on Facebook, but the problem I'm having lately is that my feed is 100%
politics right now from both sides of the political spectrum. I've snoozed
almost 75% of my friends for a month, and it's still politics-heavy.

So... mastodon it is for now...
