Does anyone find Mastodon to be beneficial in any way?
Due to the restrictions on Twitter, I've been trying out Mastodon recently. So far, I've noticed that there aren't as many high-profile people and it's harder to find people on other servers.
Mastodon is, as it stands, less about following large accounts and more about following "regular" people that do stuff that interest you and interact with them. It's easier to have bi-directional interactions and it's much more humane and friendly. A good way to discover people is via boosts, for example.
