You don't need either of them and if you feel that you need this kind of site then mastadon will work fine until you figure out that you don't

That's probably a good thing. You don't need to be stimulated constantly with crappy memes and the worst political takes you have ever seen. Smaller platforms usually lead to more meaningful interactions with other users.

Depends on the user tbh. Lurkers who don't interact that often would prefer if there is more content to endlessly scroll. Can't blame them for wanting more content even if the quality decreases.

P-please, anything but sitting alone with my thoughts for a while. I just wanna scroll man. That's all. I don't have a problem. This is normal. It's fine. I'm fine. I'm just a lurker man, it doesn't matter if the content isn't good. I just wanna scroll.
