Thing is, normal people don’t really like interacting with the kind of person that would have jumped over to Mastodon. Zeal is insufferable most of the time.

- saagarjha 2y agoWell, unfortunately, the kind of person who is an expert on SME is on Mastodon. So if you're writing an article on it, you should probably go to them instead of tech influencers who recycle content on Twitter.
- joshstrange 2y agoI’m fairly certain that staying on (or joining) Twitter shows just about the same amount of “zeal” as leaving for Mastodon/BlueSky/Threads. Or put another way, I find people on Twitter to be insufferable. It’s not a secret that a large portion of actually technical people (not tech influencers) left Twitter for Mastodon. So the people on Twitter may be more polished turds but are turds nonetheless. Full disclosure: I still use my Twitter for customer support because that’s all it’s good for at this point IMHO. I also don’t regularly read mastodon but it’s where the people I care about are and when I post (rarely) that’s where I do it.
