I Was Wrong About Mastodon – EscapingTech

I said that Mastodon moderation wouldn't scale, it does. The cultural differences will likely continue to maintain a friendlier atmosphere regardless of size.

I applaud your thoughtfulness. The bird accounts with huge followings seem to be having the most difficulty with the idea of moving to Mastodon. They operated like more top down journo - with interactive comments. Meanwhile a whole bunch of us are figuring out Mastodon and actually having conversations. This feels far more “social” than the bird ever was.
@JenniferSlack @jeffjarvis @malwaretech @sloopyy Sorry but I actually had more conversations on Twitter.
@JenniferSlack @jeffjarvis @malwaretech @3wombats It might take a while. But you were probably on Twitter a long time. It will get better here. 🤗
@sloopyy @JenniferSlack @jeffjarvis @malwaretech An embarrassing number of years
@sloopyy @JenniferSlack @malwaretech @jeffjarvis Same here. I had the unbelievable number of 8400 followers LOL All vetted. Most of the important ones are here now. That number is still a mystery to me
@malwaretech @JenniferSlack @3wombats @jeffjarvis
Hey, I only had about 3500. 🤯 But that was enough. I was mostly a retweeter. I still drop in there a couple of times a day. Same @ as here.
@sloopyy @malwaretech @JenniferSlack @jeffjarvis Thankfully all of them didn’t interact LOL
