the great migration to another investor-backed patiently waiting disaster. enjoy it while it's good. if only they used activitypub. Mastodon is just too confusing for the average person, it will never take off. bluesky streamlines everything into being simple and understandable to the average user. I laugh when I see people circle jerking about being better than twitter when in reality it was started by the same people and all it takes is someone with too much money and it'll be another fall-off story.

edit: I say this as someone who uses it, beats using shitter in it's festering decaying state.

You're mistaking motivation for ability. If you understand email, you can understand Mastodon.
