I own a mastodon account. but often times I just look at the screen and wonder what exactly do I write. People often update stuff about things, post some art. and maybe just tell mundane day to day life.

There isn’t anything that I do that justifies the need for small updates. moreover I feel like not doing it saves alot of time, I can use it like writing a diary, but it’s too personal for that (and a diary actually is useful to keep things up) for everything else, blog posts, artistic stuff, etc. I already own a website for that. and for discussion? lemmy already exists.

I feel that people use mastodon or twitter, they write alot of things and react to others. but not to the extent of it becoming a productive thing. (which I meant, people who do one liners.) Using mastodon only to post art. blogs. etc. maybe once in a while if you need to share your thoughts is alright. Using it daily or even every 15 minutes like some of us is too much and very unworthy of your time. I advice people to dive deep and write more than just “thoughts”, say maybe you want to talk about your experience and write the details and the little things. Writing blogs is an art medium, shouldn’t be an addiction, and addiction doesn’t make anyone happy.

My own thoughts of microblogging in general.

if you need to, let me know how you feel about this.
