Yeah this is becoming popular.

But in general, people somehow prefer platforms that look like Twitter.

Mastodon, Pleroma (and Gab, Truth based on Mastodon) and others are very similar in functionality with twitter.

I had the same thought yesterday. Every new social network or any new alternative is only a Twitter clone.

And just now I am thinking it’s because people want attention but not discussion.

I write my post, tweet it and it’s done.
