Mostly I used Twitter to follow specific journalists and a few famous people. Mostly sports stuff. There isn’t much sports media on Mastodon unfortunately.
I think the point of Twitter is to follow famous people. Since there are very few famous people on Mastodon it makes it less useful. They need celebrities and media platforms to make the switch. That’s not really a problem for a link aggregator like Lemmy. I think this site has a bright future.
Personally I use both. I have Sonar set to pull from Usenet first, then a private tracker, then a few public trackers. I just like Usenet because it works really good with all my wife’s reality TV shows. I always had trouble getting them with torrents.
Also the used game market makes it so you can buy and sell your games when you are done with them. I switched to PC awhile ago. I don’t think it’s really cheaper. It cost about $1000 to build a PC that can compete with a $400 console.
That’s probably because everyone who left came here.
