That’s why it took so long after they got convinced to do it but not really why it took so long overall.

I think the founder didn’t like the idea of talking about each other instead of with each other. After enough people said they really wanted it they wanted to give people at least control. And don’t necessarily am thinking that was the right decision but it came from a good place.

That’s true, you may or may not agree with the motivation but it was certainly because Mastodon is trying to find ways to not repeat the destructive patterns of other social media.
