it's the branding.
mastodon has a crummy name
but also there's too much friction to get on it
feels an awful lot like bluesky saw where mastodon fell short and decided to be all the things mastodon failed to live up to, but to also be its own set of things that are worse than mastodon on a moral/ethical/technical backend level--but instead they focused on the user experience.
It sucks, but people just enjoy bluesky's user experience more.
If mastodon doesn't like it, mastodon can change. So, go ahead, mastodon. Fix yourself. Be better. We're all waiting.

"wontfix"
And that's why bluesky has won (at least for now).
X and Bluesky are tools, nothing else.
Maybe I'm stating the obvious here, but Mastodon simply doesn't have a lot of marketing muscle behind it.There was too much friction publishing to Nature. I don't want Nature, but a similar experience, so I'm switching to Elsevier

You are very bad at reading energy.
That's because I felt it.
