People who claim there is no engagement on Mastodon have never posted a photo of a really cute cat and it shows.

@lemay wait we're still hearing this "no engagement" baloney?

I was on Twitter for 14 years, and I've been on Mastodon since 2017, and my own experience is completely different. I got mostly no engagement on Twitter, but I've gotten more genuine interaction on Mastodon in 9 years than I ever got in 14 on Twitter. You just need to not be a garbage person (foreign concept to some, I know...)

@yakkoj @lemay likewise, but I suspect my twitter account's visibility was screwed, for a few reasons.
