I feel like the reason , and the at large, aren't taking off has to do with the fact that they're actually social networks. People don't seem to want a social network, they want content platforms. People aren't using or or to keep up with their friends these days, they're using these apps to entertain themselves. And since and every other platform that used to be a social network began pivoting toward content promotion, I think society has forgotten what a social network is supposed to actually be anymore.

@Chozo this is a super-great point. on its merits, mastodon is inherently more social- it's a place for discourse and connection, not raw eyeballs and engagement. lower volume but much higher intent/quality of discussion.
