I’ve been giving Mastodon a fair share over the past few months, but even though the user base is significantly larger on that platform than Lemmy, I find the actual user ENGAGEMENT significantly worse. I’ll be posting random super interesting shit (according to me at least) and get fuck all as any for of reaction whatsoever, whereas Lemmy and its users actually engage in dope content. Therefore I’ve come to the clear scientific and educated decision that Lemmy is simply superior. Since it’s “AskLemmy” - thoughts?

    I find the actual user ENGAGEMENT significantly worse.

    That’s the point though?

    I don’t use Mastodon for engagement but a feed of interesting stuff across a variety of subjects posted by others. Masto is a little bit like an RSS feed, I don’t castigate RSS for that either.

    Sarcasm aside, that’s like saying a screwdriver is better then a hammer.

      Same. I don’t want interaction on Mastodon. I’m not looking for a discussion there, I just want to curate a feed that I find interesting to view and occasionally vent about things without the pressure of social interaction.
