There are all these posts about how "liking" posts on mastodon doesn't affect post reach/engagement...

I was only ever liking posts because I liked them or as acknowledgement that I'd seen them.

Differing perceptions and uses of social media are a funny thing.

@talopine I know! And the ones about how strange chronological order is. I never stopped seeing them chronologically except when Twitter undid the setting periodically!
@timtfj who on earth was using the algorithmic feed by choice?!?!
@talopine People who didn't know the chronological one existed and hadn't set up a sensible system of lists, I think! They're the same people who talk a lot about needing lists here.
