The problem is that the painfully earnest people went to Mastodon, the funny people went to BlueSky, the celebs went to Threads, and the mid-tier YouTubers and Streamers and Podcasters who have to be Internet Famous every damned day or they don't get to eat stayed on Twitter.

Personally I'm pulling for Mastodon because I'm a painfully earnest person.

That explains why I like Mastodon! Painfully earnest individual here.

If there was only some way for people on different microblog websites to talk to each other...

Maybe some kind of open, decentralized protocol?

If only. Some sort of text with added extra, like hypertext, and it could be used as a transport protocol. One can dream.
