I used Twitter for a very short bit, and that was simply to follow updates from content creators from youtube and other sites. After Musk took over, I deleted my account, and that was a few days before the massive data breach.
I've been trying Mastodon, and just started getting used to it. But the nature of it compared to Twitter is it is very manual, like you have to make a deliberate effort to find the content you want to follow rather than it being pushed to you. There is a front page kinda, but it doesn't update frequently enough to justify browsing. I don't know if it is a Mastodon thing or a problem with all microblogs, but it kinda feels like I'm talking to Noone half the time compared to kbin and lemmy.
I've actually found it easier to interact with Mastodon via Kbin's microblog feature. I just tend to see more post I normally wouldn't see via Mastodon, and get a lot more interaction as well. In the end, kbin might just be my hub for community interaction and microblogging.
I browse tumblr from time to time, but mostly to follow certain artists work, and get memes and creations from certain fanbases I follow.
