Even then i think twitter works (or used to) because of the algorithm that kept you getting more content, which mastodon doesn’t have (nor shouldn’t) but with content agregators as long as you are subscribed to stuff that interests you you only need to hit a certain number of users for content to keep flowing.

It’s the difference between subscribing to subjects rather than to people.

I don’t think apple is doing that, but it would be cool to see even though I don’t like apple’s practices that much.
