I'll just say it: I was a heavy #Twitter user, but Elon is a horrible rightwing buffoon so I've been migrating to both #Mastodon and #Post. Thus far, while there are lots of interesting people on Post, posting there feels like dropping links into a dry well. I get very little engagement, even when I use hashtags. I'm not even sure how to gauge engagement there. Mastodon feels more like a community. I know they're both evolving, but for those who are trying both, what are your feelings thus far?

I'm learning.

The whole point of my Twitter presence was to troll the living fuck out of the worst people on the planet... and I'm GOOD at it.

But it's tiresome, and I yearn for more substantive things in my life than just the endless war against the world's most insecure monsters.
