So far, I have to say, Mastodon is more interesting than Post. I'm curious if others who are on both agree or disagree. In y view, Post has some interesting features it is building and presentational elegance, but the content just isn't there, and it's still a lot of people just introducing themselves.

I also worry about the backing. Mark Andreesen (A16Z) is a huge red flag in my book, as he has gone so-in to the cryptocurrency crud, pioneering a gig economy of securities fraud.
@ncweaver @benjaminwittes you know he is the reason netscape and the web are a thing, right?
And since then, he's become one of the most toxic venture capitalists in Silicon Valley, with a business model that is literally "commit industrial scale securities fraud"
@sneak
Everything issued by an A16Z funded company and dumped on retail is a walking, talking, singing violation of the Howey test. That the SEC only comes in after the scams implode doesn't mean they aren't scams.
