@CathyBikesBook if you are interested in Fedi voices from and about Africa (not sure if that's the case since you tagged #USA), here is a starterpack

@imp3tuz thanks for sharing. very informative. I joined mastodon.social b/c it was one of the first instances listed on the join mastodon page. i had looked at mastodon.plus(mstdn.plus) also. since being here though i have found a few more instances that interest me.

@CathyBikesBook nice try, ICE. We won't give up our friends tho.

[cathybikesbook@mastodon.social]

@macacator someone mentioned you in my AskFedi post about finding more Black people up here

[imp3tuz@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@CathyBikesBook yup definitely recommend switching if you please.

i have my other account over @bottled_o_taki . very cute instance.

[cathybikesbook@mastodon.social]

@imp3tuz @bottled_o_taki ok cool. i sent a follower request

[hazelnot@sunbeam.city]

@imp3tuz wait that's also you? I saw you boost some posts from there and thought it was someone else

[imp3tuz@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@hazelnot my alter ego hehehe

[tobie1@mastodon.social]

@CathyBikesBook It's a serious problem with the Fediverse. I hope it changes. I'm glad you're here.
