I compared reach and reaction on Twitter & Mastodon. Picked a subject typical of my feed and reworded it to be native for Mastodon. Same link, issue, people, tone. With 309 K followers on Twitter it got 81 RT and 179 likes With 8.5 K followers on Mastodon: 123 RT and 195 likes.

A typical website visit in 2022 1. Figure out how to decline all but essential cookies 2. Close the support widget asking if I need help 3. Stop the auto-playing video 4. Close the “subscribe to our newsletter” pop-up 5. Try and remember why I came here in the first place

Beware of people who describe a "conversation" they had, but only tell you what came out of their own mouth.
