I don't believe it, its true.

I was on twitter for 7 years. Hundreds of followers, thousands of tweets. Maybe 6 actual replies in that time.

I've been on mastodon for 5 years now. I have people I'd genuinely call friends. A community. Regular meaningful engagement with actual humans about the stuff we make and share with each other.

Twitter isn't designed for engagement between people. its designed to make money by getting you to engage with twitter as a platform.
