    This is why I can’t get into it. The whole twitter format just feels so unappealing to me.

      Yeah, that is me too. I tried Mastodon for a bit and it just didn’t work for me. Posting something just drowns you out until you actually have a decent amount of followers, however many that may need to be.

      If I post with a new account, 99% of it goes into the void. I had a few people like and boost my posts but they were still gone into oblivion within an hour or less. Not sure how that is appealing? It is like a popularity contest. Like those cliques in schools of the popular kids.
