My main problem is that there just isn't anything I actually want to engage with on Mastodon. Most of the communities I would engage with simply don't exist there, or only exist there in minute quantities.
I don't know if Mastodon has communities per se. They have news sources, local info sources, and individuals that make interesting and brief posts. There might be some back and forth comments under a single.post. It feels closer to Twitter than Reddit. I have always been more of a forums person, which is why Rwddit appealed to me more (and why I'm most active in Kbin.social and Tildes). I have however built up some follows on Mastodon over the past 8 months and I dip in every onve in a while, usually finding a worthwhile news article or subway service info.
