if you don't like mast, you wouldn't like twitter

Well, not entirely true. I like twitter but I haven't found the same variety of "culture" in mastodon yet. And I'm not talking about trolls or racists or whatever else twitter is known for. I follow nearly 1000 people on twitter— and few of them are "famous"—mostly because I like their art or humor or insights. Let me make it clear that I don't have a problem with mastodon subculture; i followed many of these people as well before they moved platforms. But it's very insular and I want to see a greater variety of posts. People posting on mastodon seem to exclusively form part of the very specific intersection in a venn diagram composed of lgbt, neurodivergent, and political activist, who fled twitter in search of a safe space at any cost (and I don't blame them). So I find myself still opening twitter because there's lots of gaps in my feed ranging from normie posts, memes, cynical satire, people I disagree with (yes, I wanna see those, too), lots of artists, and many figureheads from communities I'm interested on like anime and games. I feared lemmy/kbin would have a similar fate but I guess our migration happened for different reasons and I don't feel the need to open reddit at all now because I can find/build qualitatively analogous communities here. It doesn't depend on specific people as long as someone keeps the place alive.
