I said that journalists said that Mastodon is bad. Personally I love PieFed and the Lemmy software isn’t half bad, plus both are improving, the former swiftly and the latter slowly but does grow. I don’t know what is holding Mastodon back, as I do not code in those languages. I only tried to help shine light on a diagnosis that could help us move forward past whatever it is that represents people’s major obstacle to joining Mastodon, or yeah perhaps the Threadiverse instead would be more to their liking.
