"We're ending our experiment on fedi because we were not getting very much engagement"
I mean, yeah, you were dumping what amounted to an RSS feed for your site to fedi, and not engaging with the few replies you did get, so I'm not sure what you expected from this place?

There's like a 1:1 correlation between "organizations whose experiments of being on fedi failed" and "organizations which treated fedi as a write-only bullhorn"

More specific to the broadcaster I'm subtooting here: in their parting statement, I am reading a subtext of "we were hoping that people would start conversations with each other under our posts"
And like... what?? That is not how any of this works. You're not a debate moderator who assigns the topics to speak about and then lets others do the work. You need to actually participate in the conversation yourself, if you want it to be had!
