Mastodon’s distributed nature makes it hard to adopt and find friends and services. Explaining why it is so hard to use to non tech people is really not easy to do. It is a platform for nerds and its complexity will gatekeep others unfortunately. Bluesky model is working better. I have accounts on both and BlueSky is more active and widely adopted while Mastodon has only geeks/nerds on it. You can disagree with this assessment but it is what I see.
