To people who feel like there aren't many people on mastodon/fediverse, please actually try to be social. So often I see "there's nobody here, i'm going to bsky/threads/whatever" and then when I look at the account's profile on the home server (to make sure I can see all posts and replies), I almost always see very few posts in recent past and even fewer replies. The Fediverse's culture (and mastodon's software) is built around more traditional social networking, like we used to do before algos.

tldr "if you want social interaction try talking to people."

(then the UI should do that to start)

basic part of UX design: you need to get the first impression right.

what do you do with a new timeline?
