(You don’t have to put their @, just say yes or no if you want.)

I got permission from her, so my GF is @PieInTheSky@feddit.online

    I tried to get mine to join, but my girlfriend spent a few hours here on a Saturday morning. She looked up my username, saw how much grief I got just for advocating third-party voting, and decided everyone here is way too extreme and hateful.

    Which might be true, but she also played Grow a Garden on roblox while we watched the super awesome Charlie Sheen documentary on Netflix last night, so I can’t take her judgment too seriously.

    No. Doesn’t use any social media really, but did make a little-used account on bluesky after closing their twitter down.

    Nope, she tunes out when I start talking about federated services. Just not something that captures her interest/she gives any real thought about.

      somehow.

      The barrier for entry between consoles and PC is basically identical at this point, and they’re both easy enough that anyone but infants and late stage dementia sufferers can access these days. I imagine only those with an interest in the actual hardware would be relegated to family tech support

    I got her on Reddit ages ago but I think she stopped using it because the official app sucks so much. I don’t think she’s interested anymore though. Instagram mostly.

    He got an account just to spy me on here from time to time (I mean it in a cute way), but I don’t think he has any interest of actually using it, for now at least. He’s not really a “social media” person, Instagram is like his “main platform” but only because all his friends are there lol

    He has shown interest in my “decentralization journey” (for lack of a better term, I guess) because we share similar values and he recognizes that moving traffic to popular social media websites like Instagram or Twitter is harmful because the parent companies are awful (less focus on privacy, more focus on environmental impact and political issues). Got him to use Bluesky instead of Twitter because of this.

      keep being a good influence; get anyone and all that you can in the good fight against centralized corporate control.
