MODERATORS
They don't like algorithms. They want you to select which content you see.
That's all I've got. Mastodon is a better, more open tech. And it's pretty easy to get set up, relatively. It's insane that companies haven't jumped on it.
You don't even have to quit Twitter. You can just post to more than one place and give people the option.
This is what happens when someone can't put themselves into their user's shoes and then wonder why a product isn't doing as well as it is.
They proclaim the product is great, it's everyone else that's the problem
Threads (for better or worse) demonstrates that that's not a fundamental obstacle for fediverse microblogging.
If someone wanted to launch a Mastodon fork with algorithm-driven content discovery, they could do. Just as with Lemmy/kbin/mbin, the beauty of the fediverse is that different servers can take quite different approaches to use experience design whilst still maintaining compatibility with the rest of the community.
