An excellent feature on Biden's achievements and not the polls.

The facts are so stark and yet his approval rating is so poor. There must be many factors, but surely social media must take a lot of the blame for reality distortion to such an extent?

👀 Pulled some stats on #fedified Mastodon users and it seems like the key to growing one's audience on here is to post at least once per day.

The sweet spot seems to be 3 to 10 times per day (including boosts and replies, excluding Twitter cross-posts)

Posting more than 10 times/day --> diminishing returns

Posting less frequently than once per day --> stagnant growth

If done poorly, scaling will annoy new participants. Mastodon's onboarding is an obvious weakness. Once new users are onboarded, the UI is laden with jargon and the UX is opinionated in counterintuitive ways- this creates friction for mainstream users who just want to do one of 2 things:
- publish content to their audience
- consume content as a member of the audience

Reconnecting with your favorite Twitter accounts is easier than ever. Over 600 trusted voices and great follows are now in a searchable, filterable, and sortable directory at https://www.fedified.com
