Maybe this is part of why I keep bouncing off Mastodon. It feels tight-knit. It's about individuals, about relationships.

I don't fit in such a system. I've nothing to offer in a relationship, I cannot be a "comrade." Still, I want news, media, and easily accessible knowledge being shared.

So, I'm a lurker, a consumer. I tend towards anonymous forums and spaces centered around topics rather than people. Or, I seek celebrities, and sellers, and content creators.

Either sort-of give me something I want, while Mastodon doesn't. Too focused on the people, but without big names to follow.
