My mom's dog, Rizzo, thinks Halloween is juuuuust a little too spooky (because the doorbell rings a lot), so he stays with me tonight where there are fewer trick-or-treaters.

@BlinkerFluid @hedge I agree with your overall point: social networks where you subscribe to a community seem to get more replies (and longer replies) than ones where you subscribe a person. They also make it harder for influencers to take off -- anyone's post has a chance of generating discussion. They deemphasize who the OP is.

Mastodon's ability to follow those communities is, IMO, a killer feature that I hope more people discover. (Case in point: I'm posting this from Mastodon right now.)

Plenty of people try to use popular hashtags to promote their unrelated content, but I'm almost impressed that they actually tried to make a segue from "oatmilk" to "my hustle grindset blog."
