As a user, I consistently see more interesting content on Mastodon than Twitter or pretty much any other social media platform (except maybe Reddit till they decided to screw up).

    Honestly, I would recommend everyone here who hasn’t already to sign up to a Mastodon server in addition to Kbin.

      Honest question, why? If you’re already on kbin that is your account. What is the reason to have another separate account on mastodon?
