I know we all dream of having all our friends and family on the Fediverse

I honestly have to say that this isn't remotely part of my dream. I couldn't care less about the friends and families that are using facebook. They can contact me over E-Mail or over my phone. If they want to stay in touch even more, come join Discord or leave it be, simple as that.

If it wasn't for those alternative social media, I wouldn't even use social media at all.

Am I in the minority for thinking like that?

I prefer to keep online forums anonymous. People can't be nervous to speak their mind.

Joke's on you, thanks to cripplingly low self-esteem and intrusive paranoid thoughts, I am always nervous to speak my mind.

I prefer talking to my folks over the phone or in person. Those who only want to communicate via social media are not important enough to me to deal with all that stuff.
