@andrewstroehlein creating synergy, actually. Oh, and adding value, too.
@andrewstroehlein given what I do I have to reach out and then circle back lol 😆
@andrewstroehlein there's no 'all of the above' option 🤣
@andrewstroehlein
You left out the option for “Tearing my hair out” (I remember that one - not fondly at all).
@andrewstroehlein right now, googling those terms...
@andrewstroehlein coding by myself 😅😂
@andrewstroehlein None of the above, I work.
@andrewstroehlein The bigger question is how did this perform on Mastodon vs the same poll you did on Twitter? What is your feeling so far about the two platforms?
@pweiss Poll results on 3 platforms… people on Mastodon are circling back, people on Twitter are reaching out, and people on LinkedIn are just no fun…
@andrewstroehlein thanks for circling back to me in this. I will be reaching out for further discussion and will keep you looped in so we can touch base as and when. 😬
@andrewstroehlein also, fascinating to see Mastodon getting@far more engagement from a much lower follower base. Less bots, more humans?
@pweiss That and no algorithm throttling who sees your posts. Here, I have 7k followers but they all get sent my posts. On Twitter, I supposedly have 130k, but when I post, it’s only sent to a tiny fraction of those.
@andrewstroehlein intresting results. I wonder for how long Mastodon can keep on showing all tweets in chronological order without any filters and if this is a good thing for both Mastodon and users. Twitter was the same until its breaking point in 2014 when it counted 288m users worldwide. The more users you have the harder it gets to offer good UX to retain them. Mastodon so far has 1m. Do we want to see all posts shared by all of our following or do we want some sort of filtering?
@andrewstroehlein so how will important will Mastodon in your channel mix for 2023?
@pweiss @andrewstroehlein Mastodon right now seems to be good at providing high reach to niche audiences. This alone is a good reason to consider it in the 2023 mix. Consider and watch how it evolves of course
