So, I have talked about how I've been doing a side-by-side comparison of stats for Instagram and Pixelfed by posting the same photos on both accounts.

Well, my pics tend to fall into certain well defined categories. So, I have been sorting the photos into the following and comparing average number of likes: Cats, Food, Flowers, Manga, and Selfies.

Based on these broad categories, I noticed a few hings. More info in the following toots.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

Since January 2024 - here has been the average likes per post for those categories:
Cats - 25 (Insta), 35 (Pixelfed)
Food - 17 (Insta), 8 (Pixelfed)
Flowers / Bloomscrolling - 22 (Insta), 24 (Pixelfed)
Manga - 28 (Insta), 5 (Pixelfed)
Selfies - 25 (Insta), 10 (Pixelfed)
Toys - 20 (Insta), 8 (Pixelfed)

So, a few patterns emerge. First, there is not a lot of people noticing my manga posts on Pixelfed. That's apparent.

Second, the Fediverse loves cats. More so than Instagram! Same with flowers / bloomscrolling.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

Food, selfies, and toy posts tend to average about the same per post on Pixelfed. 8-10 likes on average.

On Insta, selfies, manga, and cats do best. On Pixelfed, cats, flowers, and selfies do best.

Basically, on either platform - you can't go wrong with cat pics or selfies.

Now, on Insta, part of the manga boost is that I've been kind of into Mangagram - sharing posts, interacting with posts, etc on manga. Then again, I don't see a lot of manga in general on Pixelfed. Maybe it's me!

@Bodling Perfect - you'll get all the likes that way! :Hehe:

I have made a lot of friends on Fedi since then, but those six were either the first I knew who came over or the first bunch I became friends with while here on Mastodon. Glad to have met them!

I am excited and honored to announce that I am now an official Ambassador for the @Vivaldi web browser!

This is a browser I've been using for about 8 months now and absolutely love everything about the browser itself as well as the team that makes it and the community they have built.

I couldn't be happier to endorse a browser that works as great and as quick as Vivaldi!

Good morning and Happy Wednesday!

Today is my official "Mastoversary." Now this account I made in November 2022, but my first Mastodon account as made today two years ago on Dot Social.

In these two years, my social media experience has been better. I've had more direct conversations with folks about so many things. Learned about more new music. Kept connected about politics, without as much of the...wild anger, bitterness, and screaming angrily into the void.

I am glad to be here with y'all.

Here's to the Fediverse.

Good morning and happy Wednesday to everyone around the #Fediverse today!

Let's talk about what our day today will consist of and what we all hope or need to accomplish for the day.

For me, I have a meeting at 12pm due to it needing to be moved from yesterday as it was a very busy day at work yesterday for all of us.

Not much else planned that I am aware of. Hoping to get some video game time in a bit later.

@cliffwade Good morning and good luck with the meeting. Hope your day goes well.

And enjoy the video games.

Today is, officially, my 2 year Mastoversary. Which is wild. My first Mastodon account (on Dot Social), I made 2 years ago today!

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@cliffwade YW and glad to hear it's an easy meeting.

And wild, right? Doesn't feel like it's been that long. But yea, 2 years on Fedi.

This week for @Kitty's Tune Tuesday @derthomas gave us a theme of "The Opener." We remember the first acts / songs we saw live.

Apart from kid's stuff, like Sesame Street Live, the first concert I went to was in 1994 for Billy Joel's River of Dreams tour. My parent's took me and all of my siblings (at the time).

I distinctly remember two things: the song "River of Dreams" and my brother sleeping through the entire concert. That's about it. https://songwhip.com/billy-joel/the-river-of-dreams

To be fair, that was 30 years ago...

EDIT: Added one more memory.

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@stu It's a solid album. Now, as an adult, my favorite is The Stranger, but that's a great album. @Kitty @derthomas

Good morning and Happy Tuesday!

Today is a busy-ish one at work, followed by softball practice for my youngest two. Oh, and probably some mowing in between there.

Busy day. But, thankful for every breath I take.

Hope you have a great Tuesday.

Good morning and happy Tuesday

Let's all talk about what our day is going to consist of today, or what it has already consisted of.

For me, I have a TON of work stuff along with three meetings today.

After that my wife will be taking me out to dinner for my birthday today. We'll be going to a place called Village Tavern that we've been to once that was really good.

mdmrn,
@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@cliffwade Happy Birthday!! Enjoy the dinner and hopefully the work stuff isn't too bad.
