Adam ConoverI haven't posted much on Mastodon yet, but I've noticed my posts here have gotten as much engagement as they would have on Twitter, despite the fact that I have 1/100th of the followers here. Wondering what to credit that to: Non-algorithmic timeline, less people to follow and therefore more attention paid to each post, and a friendlier atmosphere. Most likely, all three!
John Morrison@adamconover I also think anyone who has been on Twitter long enough with a high profile has a substantial amount of zombie followers who haven’t logged in in a matter of years which really makes the follower number less reflective of the number of actually engaged followers.
