Long post ahead; tl;dr a rundown of how to sign up for Twitter or Mastodon with links to follow my accounts, and my Discord handle
Alright, in light of Tumblr razing the place to the ground to chase out the NSFW monsters, I have two places where you can follow my curations and original content.
TWITTER: https://twitter.com/xyniahx
MASTODON: MonsterPit https://monsterpit.net/invite/j6h5Crqb
Twitter will link you directly to my NSFW account. There isn't much there yet. Forewarning.
Mastodon, it's a direct invite link to the MonsterPit.net server, and when you sign up it will automatically add us both to each other's followers, called Pack on this particular server.
Twitter: You don't know how to use Twitter? Don't understand the pros or cons? Aren't sure about their NSFW policies? Honestly, Twitter isn't my favorite platform. But it's great for retweets (reblogs) which is how I curate content so that original content creators can garner recognition. You can also have multiple accounts and access them from the mobile apps. However, you will need a separate phone number and or email for each. If you're like me, you'll link your primary account and email/phone number, and then set up an NSFW account on a secondary email (by the way, you'll find my primary account listed on the nsfw profile). Twitter signups follow the typical process of signing up for a website or service. Name, username, confirmation. You'll get to add email, phone number, and birthday later.
Mastodon: You have never heard of Mastodon? You don't understand how the network works? You don't know how Mastodon can be better or worse than Tumblr, or Twitter? Again I'm going to be honest with you: I had never heard of Mastodon either. But I understand the concept and hope I can explain it accurately. Think of Mastodon not like a website, but like a framework the let's server owners create websites that retain connectivity with other Mastodon servers, and these are called instances. People install this framework on their server, build their website, and accept member signups. Each server is separate from each other and owned by different people, but the users on every server can follow users on other servers. You can also sign up on multiple servers with the same email (this has been tested, but not extensively). Sign up is a little different. You can go to joinmastodon.org, which will take you through a process of answering a few questions, like what kind of user you are (I chose adult content creator), what your interest is regarding community, and your user info (name, password, etc). Mastodon will then offer up a list of servers that may match your interest. Don't worry about picking one and then not liking it; you can sign up for multiple, and deleting an account is easy, once you find the option. Working on Mastodon using my mobile device, it's like any learning curve for a new platform, so it may take a little searching. Now, you've chosen your server. You'll then choose a username and all that. Pay attention to your user handle. Because each server is basically it's own website platform, that particular instance of Mastodon is where you will sign in (I have to type monsterpit.net into my URL bar, not joinmastodon.org, to sign into my account). You'll get the customary confirmation email link to validate your account, and then you're in. So far, Mastodon has functioned like a weird blend of Twitter, Tumblr, and Discord. You can post, repost, and like content from other users, access mutual only content, server only content, and even network content from all users and all servers using the Mastodon framework (this is the interconnectivity part, and it means you don't have to join every server to follow people from different interest groups).
So, now that I've covered the basics of both Twitter and Mastodon sign up, I hope you'll join me. And if not, that's alright too. Also included is my Discord handle, because I know a few servers, but I don't have time to go into detail on them. You're also welcome to message me here as long as Tumblr is still on its legs
