Open post Toran Shaw - M7TOR @torspedia@mastodon.tjs.is · 22mo ago Replying to @_elena@mastodon.social <p>Can we please retire the myth that there is “no engagement” in the Fediverse? </p><p>Exhibit A: this badge from <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Ivory" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Ivory</span></a> showing the activity in my account over the past 22 hours — 344 notifications (likes, boosts, follows, replies).</p><p>I was on Twitter 1.0 for 14 years, had 4x as many followers on my personal account and never ever had these many interactions. Why? </p><p>The damn Big Tech algorithms penalizing my posts whenever I shared links. </p><p>I LOVE the Fediverse and its chronological feeds ❤️</p> @_elena I barely get any interaction over on Twitter, despite replying to many posts in the past few weeks and months. One of the reasons I'm winding down my activity on there!
