I heard someone else put the issue with mastadon/twitter into words in a way that explained why I never jived with it. With mastadon/twitter you follow people and personalities while reddit and message boards were more about following a subject or interest. The twitter algorithm and sharing I guess spreads a lot of stuff around and it's cool that twitter has so many famous and inside industry people running stuff, but that community based on specific personalities makes it harder to follow.
Exactly. The Twitter and Facebook style systems are about broadcasting your personal content. Whereas Reddit and other forums is more about discussion. It's less ego-centric.
