Casey NewtonMastodon is feeling pretty dead to me y'all
Jeremy@caseynewton This one is kind of void of anything interesting. Try .technology, and securitymastod.one/ also :)
@caseynewton Oh, nevermind, your original account is .social lol . I would expect that one to be lively?
cc@caseynewton It's all about the š
Hardaway@caseynewton it's not that it's dead so much as it's Japanese. I still can't find my friends; they are all on different instances
@Hardaway this is a big problem
Dylan Staley@caseynewton I just think you need some brands to engage with
Gabriel@caseynewton I think the biggest problem is discovery. It's so hard to find anyone I know or know of, and the federated timeline has basically become useless now
Grant Rainwater@caseynewton since mastodons are extinct is that a sign for the platform too?
@grant it may be grant. It may be
colereinke@caseynewton @grant This kid in my class is talking about it right now. I've quickly realized his presentation is out of data. This is a FIRE not a TOOT. Do I correct him??
@grant @caseynewton He's talking about it whether it will kill Twitter or not. "Twitter seems to be losing followers" does this guy read the fucking news?? They're growing slowly but losing revenue. "Maybe the interface is getting old" Is this guy for real?
Tim Carmody@caseynewton you know what the problem was, is I was working
no time to toot
antlers@caseynewton What were u talking about Casey
pizza sauce@caseynewton hey what yur on this?

David Blue ā ā@caseynewton Casey... you are better than this.
The Ghost of Ćmilie@caseynewton Why does Mastodon feel dead?
@thebiologist1117 @caseynewton *that's a good question*. even though the original post is from 2017, I was there and had *plenty* of content on my timeline.
@thebiologist1117 @caseynewton I suppose I was 23... so when I look back on "my twenties," I won't remember parties or impromptu traveling or whatever the fuck... I'll just remember relentlessly... fruitlessly... trying to get my friends to try Mastodon lol.
Alain Xiong-Calmes@caseynewton how do we bring it to life though?
herval@caseynewton my original Mastodon instance doesnāt even exist anymore š
Taylor Lorenz@caseynewton and yet now It Has Risen!!
Cary Hall@caseynewton how about now?
EmilyTav@caseynewton LOL this tweets aging is going to be interesting š„
Paramansh Singh@EmilyTav @caseynewton I don't know why but I've seen this tweet for like the 10th time since I joined š
@EmilyTav @caseynewton I now realise we both said "tweet".
@params @caseynewton oh I didnāt even notice! Thatās going to be a tough habit to break :)
hanshan@caseynewton @EmilyTav @params
You just subconsciously wanted to avoid saying āthis tootās aging is going to be interestingā

Anne @annevelink_ad@caseynewton not my Timeline
backstube@caseynewton Not anymore, Casey, not anymore. Pls come, stay a while.
Martin MacKerel@caseynewton What about now?
Heraty Law
Goran MajiÄ@caseynewton that's just the quality filter. Enjoy!
ethanng@goranmajic @caseynewton true story. No more elon musk tweet on my timeline despite i repeated opt for not interested
jakobdorof@caseynewton weird. for anyone else having the same problem, this appears to be caseyās most recent post in his main feed but if you open his secondary feed with replies included you can see heās extremely active on here now. maybe a strange glitch at least for certain clients (iām on metatext)
