I 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!
@adamconover I agree w/ that viewpoint, indeed. Ye, it's a bit of a ghost town around here but at same time, it's very cozy.
