    Lemmy is a different kind of platform. Twitter wasn’t for me, but I never clicked with Mastodon either. Some people like the microblog format but I just never got it, or maybe I never worked out how to use it probably.

      Mastadon and twatter (past tense) are popularity contests. And all that popularity you are building can be taken from you for an unpopular take, even if it’s just misunderstood. The lemmy/piefed style is egalitarian, your comments stand on their own, you can post regardless of how many followers you have people may see it.
