This is me. I don't know why I thought Mastodon would click for me when Twitter never did. I can't bring myself to yell into the void. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong, idk. Much happier here.
Yeah definitely a different kind of social media. I come on here to browse the trending content and see what other people are saying about it. It's content focused, rather then Mastodon where it's focused on a person's single post and gets easily buried among low effort posts.
This is a good observation, it means that kind of social media (twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) is much more egotistical and self-aggrandizing,which in turn explains why people like Musk and Trump are so enamoured with the format.
Thanks for putting down my vague impression into clear words. I couldn't agree more!
I feel the same, I stopped using Twitter in 2010 when I realized I was neither funny nor popular and nobody cared about what I had for breakfast or how far I ran. Gave mastadon a try recently because I am interested in Fediverse but the feeling is same
