   @_elena Many people enjoy algorithmic content, and they also try to manipulate the algorithm for fun or profit. However, on the Fediverse, there is no algorithm to manipulate. Humans boost only quality content. Just ignore those irrelevant posts/claims and continue posting content that is important to you.

     Can we please retire the myth that there is “no engagement” in the Fediverse?

     Exhibit A: this badge from #Ivory showing the activity in my account over the past 22 hours — 344 notifications (likes, boosts, follows, replies).

     I was on Twitter 1.0 for 14 years, had 4x as many followers on my personal account and never ever had these many interactions. Why?

     The damn Big Tech algorithms penalizing my posts whenever I shared links.

     I LOVE the Fediverse and its chronological feeds ❤️
