I wrote up some thoughts on the #twittermigration. Should I add or change anything? Updated 7-Nov https://www.christopher-james-hall.com/blog/twittermigration-my-experience-with-mastodon

@Platform_Journalism " It really feels like a social platform opposed to a marketing or audience-building platform." Yes.

@Platform_Journalism Great summary. One aspect that is not that obvious is the deliberate design decision of Mastodon by @Gargron to avoid quoting previous mentions (like Twitter). An important difference encouraging members to talk with each other rather than at each other which facilitates civil conversation. Its subtle but powerful.

@mackiwg thanks. Yes, I have noticed that, though I didn't want to go into every detail and difference with twitter.

@Platform_Journalism Good read! I liked how you described Mastodon in the heading "Growth Hacks and Maximum Engagement!".
