I think both BlerdyOtome and OtomeKitten are not actually checking those accounts, just reflecting their posts on their main sites over to Fediverse platforms, but hey, at least they know we're alive!
Overall it seems otome on Fedi is on Mastodon, so I should make an account. (Definitely won't abandon here though!) I have been meaning to for awhile, the one thing blocking me has been figuring out what server to go to. I really do not want to use the flagship for purposes of decentralization.
This is especially important when marginalised people speak about their experiences of marginalisation. For example, if you are not BIPOC, don’t tell BIPOC to hide their experiences of racism behind CWs.
I have a feeling my need to not see this on social media funtime as opposed to my "stay informed" time, to not end up doomscrolling/stressed/despairing about the world will not be taken kindly, even though I am a POC myself, though not black or indigenous. Are you able to filter your content on that instance well enough to avoid politics and accounts of marginalization? I want to join but a lot of servers have some political post on the first ten posts, and I do not know too much about what options Mastodon has to filter content, or if I can restrict to people and hashtags I follow.
