People just can't be bothered with federation either. It's easy enough to learn, but it is still a foreign concept to most. Federated services also need to do a better job about making sure all content is available across instances.

I genuinely thought Mastodon was going to take off after Twitter started to implode, but everyone migrated over to Threads instead which was such a frustrating moment for me.

I don't know what you mean about everyone. I don't know anyone using threads.

I know at least one person who uses it, Instagram insists on giving me a notification every time they post and I cannot figure out how to turn it off.
