I've been slowly shifting over most of the general commentary I do from Twitter to here in the past few days (especially), and it's definitely been a better place to interact with others. Plus, it's not run by an erratic right-wing billionaire who implements new rules on a whim.
I'm just going to keep defying Twitter rules I find to be dumb until they suspend me, tbh. But for the most part, I think Mastodon is my primary platform of choice for text-based stuff at the moment.
@parkermolloy I’m just starting to get engagement on masto. It’s been a little slow for me to receive notifications but I assume that’s because of the huge influx of users.
@Mayleechai @parkermolloy The more you follow the better. And as you boost, the more followers you will attract. It takes a couple of weeks, but my feed here is more diverse than elsewhere and has grown increasingly with my own increasing engagement. Most of the people I was reading elsewhere are also here, but that has taken being proactive in looking for them.
