@holly@mstdn.io Try not to compare it to twitter and you'll probably find it a better onboarding experience.
I find, generally, the interactions are more and better with far fewer followers, in part due to the lack of quote tweets, and lack of ML based algo to push things down your throat.
Also, bear in mind, every server host is different, in terms of features, customisations and what they offer, so your features may not match my features, but the same goes for me because I can write a 65k character Toot and I bet you can't! ;)
