I’m pretty new to the whole Lemmy thing, but I figured I’d ask peoples’ opinions on whether it’s worth it to get into Mastodon too now that I’m officially a member of the Fediverse.

Is it active? Is it worth it? Have you had good experiences there?

I run into the issue of people randomly using hashtags. For example, I follow #reddit, but then all I see is porn. And if I search for, say, MKBHD, then I see at least two dozen of them. Some are “legit” retweeting bots, others are just impersonators. I’ve been trying to use Mastodon since a couple months back but I never really got into it. We need more persons of significance and media outlets to join. I am disappointed that, after NPR quit twitter, they don’t have at least some kind of presence on Mastodon.
