Stop using crossposters.
|
|
|
|
Not to, like, force y'all to do something, but crossposters are self-defeating.
|
|
|
|
It's far better to commit to a network rather than just make a carbon copy of yourself, because if you're posting exactly the same things, then what even is the point of having two networks?
|
|
|
|
That's just unnecessarily redundant.

I've been through this kinda rigmarole before when I tried using diaspora*, and the end result was that I completely abandoned it because I wasn't getting any meaningful interactions out of it compared to Twitter. Which was a shame, because I really liked diaspora*.

The problem, of course, is that you will inevitably gravitate to whichever platform nets you more interaction. And crossposts really don't engender organic engagement. They feel robotic and distant, largely because they're just that

ugh i really hope crossposters don't slowly choke mastodon like they did to diaspora*

if you're just crossposting everything you tweet on birdsite then what even is the point of making a mastodon account? that's glorified spam at worst, and a recipe for abandonment. |
