One of the things I have loved about Mastodon and the fediverse is that it changed how I use social media. On Twitter, my feed looked like everyone else's: RTs of all the same big accounts.

The big accounts aren't here. They aren't dominating conversations or our feeds. We are finding new accounts, new voices, new perspectives, and new jokes. I realize that this wisdom and wit did exist on Twitter, but it was not easily discovered.

I just popped into Bluesky. Looked at the feed of a well-known Twitter account, and all it consisted of was interactions with that exact same select few accounts.

Twitter, Bluesky, and Post are spectator social media. There are people who prefer to be spectators, and some of the big accounts do provide important information and insight. But it's not conversational in a way that includes followers.
