While I like the scientific chat on Mastodon, I am missing the mix of that, and current events, and just random stuff that Twitter used to provide (before a billionaire moron took over) on here.

That does not mean I am leaving, but engagement will be lower than it was on Twitter. Perhaps that is not a bad thing.

@wvschaik IMHO, this could be because federation structure of Mastodon requires more proactive search for content/people to follow.

I started following more people outside my immediate biology interests (via hastags and off global stream), and the timeline's definitely become more casually entertaining.
