If anyone seriously thinks Mastodon is going to become a replacement for Twitter they're deluded. The whole convoluted nature of it will put off average users.

If anyone seriously thinks Mastodon is going to become a replacement for Twitter they're deluded. The whole convoluted nature of it will put off average users. Nobody gives a crap that its decentralised yet they insist on shoving it down everyones throat as they jump through hoops trying to work out how to follow someone.
- lucideer 4y agoThat's the same for every new tech. Sometimes enough people invest their focus in overcoming the hurdle to push the needle to a point where network effect "forces" the rest (if they want to stay in whatever loop motivates their social media participation). Can't say mastodon will do this but if you asked me last week I would've agreed with you, yet what I'm seeing this week is unprecedented.
