> Twitter, before Elon's takeover, was a crypto-obsessed political echo chamber.

Pretending a platform as large as twitter was/is "one thing" is silly. It may have been that for you, it was not that for many.

> Platforms like Mastodon are great, as long as you don't rely on likes and reposts for dopamine.

As long as you're willing to post to no one, sure.

It's most likely the their personalized timeline was filled with crypto and politcs .

I agree on mastodon . Twitter is for finding new people . Mastodon is for following people you know .
