The fact that I can truly be me. I am still shy about posting a whole lot yet, there is not a day that someone or something makes me smile!

My favorite thing is waking up finding thoughtful spouts made by people who care. Not just divisive conservo-crap but actual positive support for the community.
Enjoy watching Spoutible grow & thinking about my own participation. Also being asked for input to help guide platform development.

Also I love that we got to weigh in on creating it. From the very beginning, at inception, @cbouzy asked us what we wanted, we voted on the name, we voted on the logo(s), ima proud auntie.

Love and acceptance. Patience and understanding. A real willingness and love of learning. Kindness and humanity. Humor and biting sarcasm, used lovingly. The great friends you never knew you needed..

The peace! Even when people disagree there’s always room for discussion. I’m impressed by all the folks just wanting to be a community. We can talk, laugh, share silly or serious and not feel hesitant here. Oh, I can’t forget the amazing recipes either 😁

Learning the course. Riding some curves get a sense of the place. Great warm start- a flaming liberal we attract attention and have gotten our first heaving cleavage "hello" message. Learning to block. I like it here.

I like how responsive people are, interested and interesting, not just trying to rack up followers and likes. More into conversation. I've learned a few things since I've been here, sometimes just from passing comments the spouter maybe didn't know was news to some of us. And funny people abound!

It's the sense of community I feel here. The people are incredible. I've been made to feel welcome and supported. I'm a stay-at-home mom living away from my home province, away from family and friends, with only my husband and child for company. This has quickly become my happy place.

I love the people here. I have since day 1.
Especially the Canadians. They are hilarious and very witty. 🙂 #tagAMA

I think it is like watching seeds growing into little plants. A little starting post. Some echos and likes. And then watching folks stretch with another post and risking more authenticity. And the diversity is just what I yearn for.

One of my favorite things about #Spoutible is the #Splashback ... I get to read, appreciate and "like" spouts & connect with #Spoutans that I have previously missed.

I feel safe and included here. Being an introvert, I never felt comfortable with any other social media platforms. I like the lack of an algorithm; and most of all, that @cbouzy and team are transparent, and do what they can for this community.

Two days in a row! Someone has posed a seemingly simple question and I have difficulty posting an answer. #TagAMA #Spoutible

I like reading other people’s responses when I don’t have an answer.

There have been many perfect examples of what makes Spoutible great, with the people at the top of my list, too. I have never been so invested in time or money as I am with Spoutible. I came initially for politics, but I also love the music, photos, and silliness. It's like a daily family reunion 🫶

I like the feeling of being part of something that is grass roots. We are all aware that it is up to us as a community of humanitarians to participate and help shape a better social media platform. @cbouzy has created a safe space for us to share.

The list is very long. For me, there is the wide range of interests among the group, the good natured joking, the ability to edit a spout, the lack of an algorithm, the strong and supportive community, and most of all, Spoutible's pest control (i.e. trolls.)

What got me here is it is so nice and not hostile.
What keeps me here is the @Myles_Away gummy saga. 🤣

The ability to manage my own 'feed', to see/read what interests me. The feeling of community. Connecting to other people - some with the same/like interests, others with different interests. Having thoughtful & thought-provoking conversations. Finding silliness, art, caring & causes to support. 🐋

I really like the variety of topics you can experience pretty much any time. It's like sitting in the middle of large park where there's music & protests & comedy & sports & art/craft & in-depth discussion. Each login i can wander in the direction that works for my mood. (Shorter: the people)!

It is the feeling of community and the willingness of people to share pieces of their lives.

I want to support @cbouzy for his intellect in getting this space up and running. There isn't any hassle, no hate from what I can tell. I feel calmer on here without the fear of saying something that will get me banned (like I am on the bird right now). I donate periodically to help here.
