👍 Some "communities" are rather well-represented here. Some unsurprising tech crowds present in large numbers: future-of-web types, people into open source and open standards, and industry-skeptic/social-justicey folks. The infosec crowd is fairly-well-represented here too. And as I said before, basically every notable blogger from the year 2005 is here!
👎 Startup/venture folks are not here in large numbers. (Yes, @hunterwalk and @mgsiegler are present!) Overall the chicken/egg problem is not cracked for these folks.
@gaberivera the 100%. the lack of good search tools on Mastodon is one of the reasons I still use twitter.
@davidslifka @gaberivera any kind of thing. at ALL. I see a news article mentioning a term or some post mentioning something. or a name. almost completely useless to search on mastodon unless it's a single word and made into a hashtag. most search queries are not single words and even those must be made into hashtags in order to be found. most people done bother unless it's some well established topic.
