26x followers! Bupkis.

Follower counts & the active users on a platform **DO. NOT. MATTER.** if the #algorithm doesn't bless your posts.

Let your creative friends know, Threads (and #Twitter / X of course) are not the solution.

@renwillis @Gargron :blobcatgiggle: love it!

Masto may not have the overwhelming numbers in people but we do in engagement :blobcathearts:

@stux @Gargron hells yeah! Just really brought it home for me. I've also got nearly 200K followers on IG and story & post engagement has absolutely tanked.

IG is a fine platform to watch videos from random people now, but it's not the home to post & share anymore.
