Why is Lemmy, with a tiny fraction of Mastodon's MAU, more fun than Mastodon? (lemmy.ml)

From news, to shitposting, to memes, to more shitposting, Lemmy feels vibrant, active, lighthearted, fun and even powerful. Mastodon feels like a fucking funeral.

The twitter format makes it feel like everyone is speaking from a soap box at all times, and people aren’t their best selves from a soap box.

With how block-heavy everyone is it feels less like a soapbox more like you're shouting into an empty parking lot.
