@ridt absolutely the case. Mastodon isn’t a replacement though it’s a nice different thing. There just isn’t the same breadth or range here yet.

Not sure that is the only problem either, because the design decisions are focused on creating threads of discussion rather than enhancing and sharing. I’m not thrilled with the limitations of lists either.

As for the focus on long form discussion, I think I summed it up nicely elsewhere. “For me, the extra space is great because I can finally cover a topic properly. Everyone else, on the other hand, would really benefit from the conciseness and brevity of 280. They write too much.”

I’m looking forward to Tumblr being available via mastodon (is that going to happen?) because there are artists and historians and everything there. It would be amusing if the death of Twitter was the rebirth of Tumblr
