On Monday, I shared an essay about climate and biodiversity for Scientific American on six different social media platforms & tracked proportional engagement (likes+shares+comments/followers). The winner? MASTODON. Second place? INSTAGRAM. Last? FACEBOOK. See below for more.
Bar chart showing the proportional engagement across 6 different social media platforms for a post about an essay I wrote for Scientific American on climate and biodiversity. At the top is Mastodon with 13%, then Instagram with over 5%, Twitter, LinkedIn and Post in the middle, and Facebook dead last with 0.2%.
