I made a bot that posts when peertube and owncast Livestreams go live on to mastodon. So there’s more content on mastodon and make it a little easier to find fediverse streamers. I’m trying to brainstorm how to make lemmy visible on mastodon since I consider it the front page of the fediverse

      Twitter had significantly more users than Reddit did too, at least last time I looked. I don’t know what the respective ratios are like, but it might just be that more people want a microblog-format social media network than a forum-format social media network.

      Okay, it looks like Reddit got pretty close to Twitter, about half the size.

      https://backlinko.com/reddit-users

      Reddit has 97.2 million daily active users.

      https://backlinko.com/twitter-users

      More than 200 million daily users worldwide access X/Twitter daily

      So maybe that’s not the driving factor.

        Looks like boys are taking reddit and Twitter since their daily active user keeps going up consistently.
