I've been giving Mastodon a fair share over the past few months, but even though the user base is significantly larger on that platform than Lemmy, I find the actual user ENGAGEMENT significantly worse. I'll be posting random super interesting shit (according to me at least) and get fuck all as any for of reaction whatsoever, whereas Lemmy and its users actually engage in dope content. Therefore I've come to the clear scientific and educated decision that Lemmy is simply superior. Since it's "AskLemmy" - thoughts?

100%. I don’t want to brag or anything but I do have 25 followers on Mastodon so I’m kind of a big deal and my posts get lots of engagement. I had 5 stars on one post, that’s the most amount of stars possible. Again, trying not to brag.
