To be honest I like the idea of being able to move my account from a server which is offline to a different one. We should have it with ActivityPub too.

    Your Twitter example is spot on. Why would I want to follow specific people? It’s about the content on the platform. Tildes suffers from the same issue, it’s generally not an interesting place to be so people don’t stick around very long.

      Personally, I like to follow specific journalist and news orgs that report on topics I’m interested in. That def helps with the breaking news aspect. Besides following talented shitposters like dril ofc.
