   #MASTODON vs #THREADS Engagement Experiment

   26x followers! Bupkis.

   Follower counts & the active users on a platform **DO. NOT. MATTER.** if the #algorithm doesn't bless your posts.

   Let your creative friends know, Threads (and #Twitter / X of course) are not the solution.

     @stux @Gargron hells yeah! Just really brought it home for me. I've also got nearly 200K followers on IG and story & post engagement has absolutely tanked.

     IG is a fine platform to watch videos from random people now, but it's not the home to post & share anymore.

     @renwillis @Gargron :blobcatgiggle: love it!

     Masto may not have the overwhelming numbers in people but we do in engagement :blobcathearts:

     @renwillis @Gargron @stux Threads is soulless abomination that is going to be another automated algorithm monster in just a little time. Meanwhile Twitter is rotting under Musk and BlueSky is gloating about it while also being filled with algorithm scripts.
