> joining an instance with a large user count has all of the same issues as Twitter with more drawbacks in the UX

I'm on mastodon.social, which is the bigger one, and my posts there have way more likes, shares and replies than on Twitter, where I have more followers but seems like I'm just talking to the void.

Yeah I have 6x the number of twitter followers and my engagement on Mastodon is far higher and of much higher quality since it's mostly my SWE peers on the server I'm on.

Same here. Interaction quality is roughly 100 times higher if I go by follower count Twitter vs. Mastodon.
