Kevin RothrockDespite having more than 10x more followers on Twitter, my average Mastodon engagement is already on par. lol
Mastodon really is superior to the other networks. It’s a shame more people in my field professionally aren’t here too, but the community is nice enough without ’em.
LAUREN@kevinrothrock I believe they will get here but it will take time. A lot of time.
The Cat Herder@kevinrothrock It’s not so bad to have a space away from the usual. Sometimes we need to vent in a receptive forum that doesn’t include the immediate circle.

@nycCatHerder @kevinrothrock a digital shout into the void.
Jesper Musaeus@kevinrothrock you could try and help the process by maintaining a public list of their names and mastodon-handle. Send them an email with link to the list and ask them to join the conversation and update the list when they have. This way they can quickly re-connect with each other when they join Mastodon.
glennmagusharveyFor what it's worth, someone made this giant list of publications, journalists, and other related sources: https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1TTtXbf0yDXHKXwR9jpZ4kU79mmiZT5KIM7U4tBr83hY/
It's kinda unwieldy, but maybe this could eventually be adapted into some sort of easily updatable and easily searchable directory site.
MelbPTUser@kevinrothrock they’ll come! Just you wait and see

wupatz@kevinrothrock blink twice if you got kidnapped by John Mastodon
keplerniko@kevinrothrock I’m really quite surprised by the effusive support some seem to be expressing for Threads. It’s clearly a corporate-backed sales channel disguised as a social media clone of Twitter. Why on Earth is there any expectation it will succeed and supplant others?
Some strong Google Buzz/Facebook phone vibes about it.
Jonathan Horowitz@kevinrothrock At some point, some group--Mozilla, maybe?--is going to create an instance that isn't officially called "mastodon" but has the benefit of "you get to follow everyone on Mastodon" and it will be user-friendly and then it has a chance. Until then the proliferation of different servers will continue to freak people out.
serklarvel@kevinrothrock not only the community, buy right now the app is better than Threads. Twitter I don't know any longer , I closed my account 6 months ago
@serklarvel Which app are you using?
@[email protected] havr been using Mastodon, Megalodon, Tushy and Moshidon
Jerry 🦙💝🦙@kevinrothrock we are small but mighty
Edolis@kevinrothrock way less bots round here and no skewed post selection algorithm. As simple as that.
Tim Clancy@kevinrothrock we're very chatty lol
John Breen@kevinrothrock I am not a bot, will engage.
Tim Richards@kevinrothrock @scrumble_eggs Agreed, I have three times more followers on Twitter and much higher engagement here.
Eli Rivera 🍉@kevinrothrock hey! Nice to see you again 👋🏽
Rebecca@kevinrothrock Right?!
roque (ロク)@kevinrothrock glad I found you on here. one of my favorite new follows
alexmak@kevinrothrock I wonder what it’s going to be on Threads
B. Amarilis Lugo de Fabritz@kevinrothrock because I see you in real time and not randomly like the other algorithm determines.
Kalle Kniivilä@kevinrothrock That's great. Same here, only better :-)
Anders Puck Nielsen@kevinrothrock That is my experience too.
Brotherd66@kevinrothrock what’s “Twitter”?
Jamie Mason

Rob Bos@kevinrothrock
Almost makes you think about how many of your posts get past the algorithm and get shown to actual people eh.
