It'd be interesting to see if single individuals behave differently in the two contexts.

@ZachWeinersmith I’d say that the main context change is that we have moderation in here. Real moderation, that is. Entire servers are easily banned. So less bullshit, less morons, it lessens the occasions to get angry.

@ZachWeinersmith This is just guesswork from me, but I think the biggest factor is social context. I think even without QTs, the mood on Masto could turn sour, or the vibe on Twitter could go mostly back to normal, depending on people’s expectations of how the others on the same platform will respond

@ZachWeinersmith I can say that I do behave differently. Now that my mastodon timeline has enough content for me to follow, I finally uninstalled the twitter app because I hated how it made me behave.

@floby @ZachWeinersmith I've felt this too, of being on Twitter changing how I think and behave. Any thought that couldn't fit succinctly in a tweet without being taken out of context was abandoned. I was indulging in a lot of my worst qualities.
