   similar to what you'd find on say, X as constant 'anger-engagements.'
   So I wholeheartedly agree. There are people on X that focus on what
   they do best and are really good accounts (Depths of Wikipedia for
   example), and similar on many ActivityPub instances. It's just a very
   YMMV at this moment.
