- mewmew07 4y agoI feel bad for you.
- detaro 4y agoLuckily that's not a problem it actually has.
- ColinWright 4y agoIf it had no content, you'd be right. But the instance I co-admin has a lot of traffic, and it's of significantly higher quality than I've found on other platforms. Mastodon requires engagement to get your network established, and if you don't bother engaging, you'll get much less from it. If all you want is entertainment and amusement, maybe staying on Twitter is your best bet.

- mrpopo 4y agoI have more than 20% of my twitter follows on Mastodon at this point. Content discovery is a bit different, need to adjust to it, but so far it's the best experience I've had at decentralized social networks since 20-y. ago IRC.
- kalleboo 4y agoIn my hobby, Mastodon is absolutely buzzing with activity and feels a lot more alive than Twitter did (possibly because Twitter insisted on ranking mainstream ragebait and populism above mild enthusiast discussion so it would always bury interesting stuff)
- oneeyedpigeon 4y agoLikewise, a huge percent of the conversation on Twitter right now is about the present and future of Twitter, so I guess that doesn't qualify as real community engagement either.
