More strange Mastodon reporting. This time from @thurrott, who claims "I’ve been using Mastodon since December, but the interaction there is almost non-existent compared to Twitter."

Dude, you follow 22 people. Try following more people. The "non-existent" interaction is *up to you*.

I've found WAY MORE interactions and engagement here than I ever had on Twitter. Plus fewer death threats.

@mmasnick @thurrott I love Paul, he is one of my fav tech journalists, but yeah he needs to actually post here. My hot take: all the smart people have fled Twitter and I just did too! I find more rewarding discussion here, but it takes a while to realise this what you are seeing.

@jononz @mmasnick @thurrott it sure does! One also need to not mistake Twitter for what it was just a year ago and think that’s also how it started out as!
