The #Fediverse and #Mastodon are nice and all...but in moments like this I miss the good cases in which twitter was a nice tool to connect with people you would otherwise never get to know in the space of two clicks..like a couple of years ago I could, one minute after finishing his last novel, tweet #JonathanCoe to tell him how much I liked it, and he replied a minute after that. Nothing like this in sight on Mastodon I'm afraid 😣 #books #reading
