From news, to shitposting, to memes, to more shitposting, Lemmy feels vibrant, active, lighthearted, fun and even powerful. Mastodon feels like a fucking funeral.

    You can follow hashtags on Mastodon. I find this a preferable experience to following individuals.

      There’s a problem with that on smaller instances.

      You can only see hashtags from people your instance already knows (someone follows them). On bigger, well-connected, instances this is not as problematic.

      But, no matter the size of the instance, it just shows how even the “hashtag experience” depends on the “following experience”.
