Post

I remember in the early Bluesky days convincing people to come over here from Twitter because the amount of authentic engagement was like 10x higher. Now I get significantly more engagement on a Threads account with 3k followers than 36k here 🥀

Lack of algorithm here part of the issue, I’m guessing

Idk, Mastodon doesn't have one either and I think that actually heavily favors accounts with large followings. I can easily get a post be on the front page of every major instance.

That would be trending algorithm on mastodon 😅 the active users on Mastodon has dropped off a cliff - it’s about 0.7m per month and that includes a great many spam accounts, but engagement is still high for people who actually post good content. But there’s a whole pretend there’s no algorithm thing
