Like, we’re in an interesting era of times where so many alternatives are cropping up because of the drastic and draconic practices that have been taken on the social media platforms we’ve commonly embraced. But eventually, starting new can get tiring after a while.
I’m getting burnt out on jumping platforms every couple years. Loving Mastodon but the user base isn’t there yet, unfortunately.
Reddit worked great because it allowed me to engage with people and share content without the expectation of creating an online identity and stuff like you do with Twitter, Facebook, etc. It’s all “me, my stuff, my likes, my retweets.” Doesn’t matter how much karma I get on Reddit; I’m still a nobody in a sea of nobodies.
Weird, aren’t there >10 million users on Mastodon? It’s bigger than Lemmy, and Lemmy has gotten a lot more activity and content the past few days
