A tale of two online spaces.
One: by the people for the people, with chronological feeds.
The other: funded by crypto bros and with pick-your-algorithm feeds.
I shared the exact same content.
Genuine interactions in the first place.
A grand total of ZERO reactions in the other - even if I have real life friends and contacts there.
Is the second place hiding my posts to 1100+ followers? It feels like I'm screaming into the void.
Guess which place I like best & which one I plan to abandon?
As your post on BlueSky is an "advertisment" for a concurrent network, I am not sure that the Algorithm pushes it......

@tanavit @_elena Yep, I think corp socials are starting to feel the threat. I very rarely post on Facebook and only log on once in many months, mostly to verify there’s no impersonation happening, but because of that I usually get quite a lot of activity on those rare posts… until I used one to encourage people to check out the fediverse. Suddenly it was crickets.

@_elena contrarian here, but I really like Bluesky and get substantial interaction there as well as find far more content that is of interest.
I love the community on Mastodon, but it’s much more niche and I also prefer the format on Bluesky. Then again, I loved Twitter and built a huge part of my network in Spain via that platform back in the day (I am not on it now).
Also, I do chronological feed on every platform that has it enabled. -

@_elena that’s interesting, Elena. Do they seem to be using Bluesky a lot or maybe they aren’t active so aren’t seeing your posts? Could you ask a couple of them if they do chronological or algorithmic?
I share tooooons of links to external sites on it, so my experience doesn’t indicate throttling of links but obviously it’s anecdotal. -

@_elena @obrien_kat this is exactly the point. We don't know and will never know why, because the algo is a black box that we don't control, by design.

@alex @pfefferle@notiz.blog regarding your second issue: you have started following others, so your inbox is open to general Activities and no longer only to replies.
This means you might also receive messages from random users, if the fediverse server decides it might be interesting for you. We already limited the traffic to the data from people you follow, but this includes all the replies/reactions to that data.

I'm having a look at the new "Apps" feature of #MikroTik.
I think this can help people to self-host stuff, to own their data.https://tiktube.com/w/kvwYDjMPRQ1LukopXFBqUp
Well done, @mikrotik !
