@em I joined Mastodon like 4-5 years ago. I wanted something better than Twitter and not be limited to 200 characters.

65k characters is a lot better. ;)

@trinsec That's good point. But please don’t compare twitter with mastodon. Mastodon/Fediverse is unique & different than other social/micro blog. There are so many mastodon instance that have 10k+ character like tildi.zone, infosec.exchange etc. Why you choose qoto.org? 🤔

@em Well you asked why I joined mastodon (or rather, the Fediverse), and not doing a comparison would be difficult if that was one of the major reasons to join.

I didn't join qoto.org at first. I joined mastodon.social first, but I decided that 500 characters wasn't quite nice enough.

Then I joined mastodon.host which had 2000 characters (later 4000), but it crashed very hard after 2 years and couldn't be recovered.

So I had to search for a new server, but I didn't want 500 characters. At least 2000 would be nice. Qoto.org was one of those with more than 2000 characters and the theme was fine to me and I liked the extra features.

So, I chose qoto.org.
