I think one of the main reasons is that a lot of tech people on Twitter ended up on there. Mastodon originally filled that spot for me, but I found that a bunch of people that moved from Twitter to Mastodon ended up abandoning their accounts (or very rarely posting) a few months later.
It’s also probably the largest Fediverse instance, as users can opt in to sharing their posts to the Fediverse.
I still don’t use it often, though. I don’t spend a lot of time on any social networks (or similar services) any more.

Mastodon has shitty clients, the servers are slow and the communication across them is buggy, and a ton of stuff is still just broken. most of the time I’ll open the client on Android and just stare for 15 seconds at a spinning “wait” symbol, and then I’ll close it and not look at it for the rest of the day.

Yes, that might be your instance? I never had that problem. And I also think there are now some very good clients
