(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
💓❤️💞
Welcome!
Thank you!
Nah our ideals are very different
Nope, my wife uses Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Discord.
Can’t get her to adopt Fediverse equivalents.
I’d say I choose quality over quantity, but she mostly is in artist communities that don’t want to move off the old platforms. They say they were there before the crazies, they aren’t the problem, so they’re not gonna move, even if the people who own those platforms are straight up fascists. I couldn’t do it.
Yep. My partner is basically the same as yours here. Too many niche communities on other social media and unwilling to give it up in spite of the ideological issues.
I think it’s just harder for some than others. I was never THAT attached to social media anyway so…this is fine for me. If I run out of content on my feed for the day its probably time to log off anyway
Nope, she tunes out when I start talking about federated services. Just not something that captures her interest/she gives any real thought about.
My wife still uses reddit now and then, but I can’t because I’m banned :-/
Nope. I can’t even get her off windows although the steamdeck did impress her.
No. Doesn’t use any social media really, but did make a little-used account on bluesky after closing their twitter down.
Lemmy, but very rarely
My partner uses Mastodon, but not Lemmy.
my wife doesn’t have any questions about my behavior on the internet unfortunately
Maybe she should. Does she know about your username.
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. Wife and kids only use the Big tech apps. I think ads and tracking don’t bother them as much as they do me.
Cries in doesn’t have a significant other
wife followed me to signal, reddit -> lemmy, and linux.
She got there on linux before me when her win 7 computer broke down and I reanimated her old laptop with linux (although a light version of ubuntu) I’ll be joining her soon; if you want me to use something debian based that isn’t Ubuntu studio, hit me up with recs in this thread : https://lemmy.world/post/35450797?scrollToComments=true
We run quite a few fediverse instances together, so yes :)
