Hello #Mastodon - I need advice

When I signed up 3 weeks ago, I joined a server without knowing what I was doing. Some have suggested that I might be better on another, but I am lost and confused

What are the benefits of moving? What are the benefits of staying?

And if I do move, where should I go? I know nothing - so your subjective recommendations & insights would be much appreciated

P.S. Here’s a picture of my cat, Max, looking confused - like me

End of my 3rd week on #Mastodon

I've not experienced social media like this before. People seeing my posts? And replying? Madness! And no robot deciding that my #cats won’t infuriate anyone and so hiding them?

The people here have been super nice too. Sharing their own cats, giving me helpful tips, and replying with positivity. You're a real likeable bunch of weirdos

So I'll probably stick around, if that's okay….?

Here's another picture of Max sleeping... OR IS HE?

A close-up of a black cat's face. He is lying on a cushion with his head tilted so his chin is slightly raised. His eye is half open and looking at the camera, because the person taking the shot is rudely interrupting his sleep

I worry she watches too much TV.

But when I buy her a book, she refuses to even try it.

A black and white cat is sitting on a sofa, with her front paws on a laptop, which is also on the sofa. She is staring intently at the screen, which is showing a video of birds and squirrels in a garden

It's my first day on Mastodon, so I'm starting by introducing my cats.

This is Max. He's a black cat so photos are tricky - but here's one where he looks like he does in reality: the single most beautiful cat in the world (if you don't count all the other beautiful cats, which is all cats)
