I think for me it's because Mastodon is a little more intimate that I like it more.

I'm a big proponent of Dunbar's number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar's_number) and deliberately follow around 150 or so people on whatever my social media of choice happens to be. I like that I know people here instead of just having passing comments to fly-by-nights.
