@leonp All good thoughts there, I reckon! I’ve definitely also had the thought in recent weeks (as I’ve got so many new followers, and seen so many introduction/“please follow me” Mastodon posts) that Micro.blog’s lack of visible followers/followings is so much more relaxing. I also think newspapers and other news outlets should set up their own instances at their own domain names, so they can give their journalists official accounts. But in general, I like that on Mastodon there are far fewer people trying to “build an audience” and more people just trying to connect with others reciprocally :)
