Anyone can get out from under all the tracking: use things like the Disconnect plugin for your browser. Pretty much removes all the tracking crap. That and PiHole (for the more ambitious) can take out all the ads, too.
Why do this? Because the tracking is simply giving free data to the likes of Google and Faceborg which they trun around and sell.
One of the things I have liked about Mastodon is the encouragement to put alt-text on images. But as others have noticed, the more the network of mastodonians grows, the proportion of images with alt-text goes down.
It's not hard - please please PLEASE add alt-text to your images, even if it's just a quick note, and better if it's more descriptive.
It honestly still blows my mind today that Santa isn’t Asian. I remember seeing him during in the internment camps, and dude was def Japanese.

Hey everyone. Just a reminder that you don't have to put up with bullying, shaming or guilt-tripping, just because it is Christmas.
If you don't want to see those relatives, you don't have to.
If you don't want to cook a huge dinner you don't have to.
If you don't feel like celebrating, you don't have to.
And don't let Christmas adverts bully you into being anxious. They just want your money, they don't care about your wellbeing.
Christmas is just one day. Be true to yourselves and put your mental and physical health first.
I'm new to Mastodon, but a lot of my former Twitter followers don't know I'm here yet. Someone suggested I could simply ask you fine people to boost me. Would you be so kind? Here’s a small token of my appreciation: #welcometomastodon #TwitterMigration
*Sheepish request* I'm new to Mastodon, but a lot of my former Twitter followers don't know I'm here yet. Someone suggested I could simply ask you fine people to boost me. Would you be so kind? (I promise to post a photo of my dog to say thanks). #WelcomeToMastodon
