The format of the fediverse is anti-virality and anti-discovery. It's also anti-index. It's a joke that anyone thinks it could ever compete with Twitter. It's not for a lack of interest or advertising.

Anyway, the purpose - at least in my eyes - is not to compete with twitter as a whole, but to offer alternatives to people that desire it. And to this end, I think Mastodon, and I hope the rest of the fediverse proved quite successful.
