And since you know nobody from Mastodon from before, of course it feels empty.
There are good things to algorithms that try to suggest content to you. People want content and not work towards it. Like TikTok.
It’s up to Mastodon to try to live up to people’s expectations or then accept that it’s different and it will not work on mass scale.
