Been using lemmy and really enjoying it. I have a twitter account that does me no good so Mastodon seemed very appealing. I joined an instance, made some posts, tried interacting with a lot of people. . . I dunno. It just never really grabbed me.

I've noticed that content seems to federate on lemmy better than on Mastodon even though lemmy is younger, and I'm under the impression this is true for kbin as well though I don't personally use it. I'd love to hear how you guys feel about it - as an artist the idea of having a blog to share my creations as well as life updates is cool but man it's just so dead

I’ve been trying Mastodon for about a week now and using hashtags like everyone suggests, but I’m not getting any interaction with my posts. I’ve looked up hashtags as well and they seem to either have posts filled with nonsense gibberish or no posts at all. I’m not giving up on it just yet though.

Lemmy has been excellent in comparison.

I’m with you. Signed up for Mastodon months ago when Twitter lost me the same way Reddit has. I’m acclimating to using tags to find content I’m interested in, but now the posts that do show up related to my interests have next to zero engagement, making it hard to want to engage myself. At least it’s pretty good for gaming news and stuff like that.
