When I left Twitter for Mastodon, so many people told me I was making a mistake and Mastodon was dead.

It was a difficult decision to switch because I had been on Twitter for 13 years, and I had accumulated over 16,000 followers.

But here we are, two and a half years later, and I am now followed by 17,000 here on Mastodon.

It is such an important milestone for me, because it proves that while the majority will often chose continuity over change, change often wins.

The future is federated!
