@sirisha How would you explain that difference?
I've noticed a small wave of new people making their way to Mastodon from the birdsite.
Here is my brief Mastodon guide for social media worriers that may prove useful for making yourself more at home.
This is a concerning chart, showing number of reported “close friends” in decline between 1990 and 2021.
Would really like to see or explore more research into the concept of close friends and how this has changed over the past decades along with the reinvention of the word “friend” by Facebook.

Really glad you're making Feedbin work so well for you Ryan.
Great interview with Meredith Whittaker, president of Signal. Well worth a read for anyone curious about messaging apps and security.

Reading this essay by Charles Eisenstein was healing for me in current world conditions.
