I put out the first version of that post while I’m getting my data fully packed up. Not a single response. Not even a like.
I suspect many platforms detect and shadowban content like this, or at least demote it or restrict its visibility. It’s what I would do if I ran an unethical social media platform trying to increase the number of active users.
This is what I don’t get, people not migrating from a shit platform. Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, etc.
They all just reach this critical mass where people decide the benefit of everyone else using it outweighs all the negatives of the platform being abusive to its own users
Yet you continue to use it…

If you got zero engagement when your friends normally at least drop a thumbs up then that post never showed up on anyone’s feeds.

I hate Facebook but I need it for local shit. I don’t use the timeline and I don’t post, but I need it for marketplace and for a locals forum.

FOMO is incredibly powerful unfortunately.
The important stuff will be reposted on another platform. It’s the whole point of !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works
The important stuff to you might not be the important stuff to someone else. And not everything gets reposted.
I’m not saying that’s a good reason to stay on Twitter, but I am saying it’s a big reason people stay.
