Depressing how little response I get to posts at birdsite. No wonder I never enjoyed it much there.
Here [mastodon home instance] in an hour I have more interaction than there in a day, at least. And the quality, no comparison.
Keep cool, #fediverse 💓
🇳🇱
@design_RG Same. Birdsite is really just a circlejerk for celebrities. Not to mention the vast majority of followers are bots. It has no value left for me.
@freemo there are some interesting media presences there, it would be nice to bridge them over here. Scientific American, The Economist, New Yorker, The Atlantic for me, all favourites.
Along with The Guardian, NY Times.
Can we have Botz ??? #fediverse
@design_RG We can set up any bots you'd like. I'd just say that unless it is STEM specific it should just be unlisted. Otherwise they are welcome.
Check to make sure they dont already exist int he fediverse too though.
@design_RG If you just need it to come from an RSS feed then I can add it for you easy enough
@freemo Scientific American sure belongs here in Public post, imo...
@freemo Thank you!
I have looked and found a NY Times (ran from gab, argh), a partially working The Economist, and no SciAm.
Would have to learn how to do it, am game.
