I saw him in Philadelphia in 2019 on his “Farewell” Tour. He has been doing farewell tours for years.

I signed up in the last few days and still struggling with it. I would love the ability to add RSS feeds but haven't figured out how to do that. For example, I use nytimes.com/services/xml/rss/nyt/homepage.xml to connect to the NY Times on my RSS Reader, but when I input it into "Find People" or "Add Contact" on my instance of Frendica it can't find it. Any ideas? Using Venera.social.

In my instance I see “show read posts”, which I had left unselected. It wasn’t working, and checking it doesn’t seem to hide them either.

Been on Twitter (with Tweetbot) & Reddit (with Apollo) for 10+ years. I kept to my follow list and subreddits and really did not see a lot of the toxicity that everyone talks about. I think that is largely because 1) I was using third party apps and wasn’t getting any adds or suggested posts, and 2) I was mostly lurking and didn’t have a lot of posts or comments. I did find in Reddit that some comments would get harsh responses, but mostly I would get useful answers to questions.

Now using Mastodon and Lemmy/WefWef. Generally, like the experience with some issues with Lemmy in particular. Main issue right now: I hate having to scroll through read posts every time I open Lemmy or an app.
