Anyone who believes the Fediverse is a barren wasteland has never seen my Mastodon notifications. I guarantee that if you’re active here, and have conversations with people, you will be amazed at the response. Don’t stay on Twitter due to follower counts. That’s a ruse. What good are followers if no one talks to you?The real action is here on the Fediverse.

Look, even when I had no more than 100 followers, the Fediverse was more interactive and responsive than my Twitter experience. And when I left Twitter, I had 8,000 followers!On Twitter, I was lucky to receive one response to my tweets.

Anyone who measures social media by MAUs is blind to what’s actually going on. Sure, the Fediverse has fewer people who log in.But on a per capita basis, it’s got way more people who post, reply, boost, and like.

What should be apparent to anyone who uses the Fediverse on a consistent basis is that Twitter has been throttling organic interactions for their own bullshit reasons.If Twitter's algorithm was so great, why are there more plentiful interactions over on the Fediverse?

@atomicpoet Interesting question, I do see more hashtags on here, and we can follow them, which really helps. But there are also more interesting things happening, from all over the world, I kinda get the impression with the varios algorithms, location is taken in to account so you find local people. Twitter for example assumes we are in to Soccer not NFL due to our location. Here if you are interested in physics you find pepple regardless of location or they find you.

@atomicpoet this thread has gotten very interesting.the important takeaway imho is that no matter what destiny is, now that we've met, we should help each other keep creating new open platforms.working together. software doesn't interop unless people interop first. we should not depend on one network, we should have lots of ways of routing around outages.

@atomicpoet Anecdotally, my website has gotten more visits since I started posting links here in mid-December than I used to get in six months of active attempts to farm for engagement on Facebook and Twitter.

@squishymage42I never found stats for my blog, but I definitely got lots more discussion from posting links to my blog pieces here than I ever got in the comments there.@atomicpoet

@atomicpoet A hit piece a few weeks back was like "most masto users still have Twitter accounts"Like, yeah? Doesn't mean I'm using it.I mean, I'm sure my home parish still lists me as being baptized, but doesn't mean I've set foot in a church in two decades.
