    I assume people want something centralised like Twitter but without Musk. Most people don’t care about federation and don’t want the extra complexity and division it causes.

      It doesn’t create division if properly designed, and Mastodon honestly does it rather well generally. There are just two things that hampered its adoption, which was the bad “default” app everyone installed as well as the network’s inability to scale absurdly fast.

      It’s like with proper cities with lots of stores vs. big box stores. The latter might got everything in one place, but it fucks up everything around it. And a well designed city with lots of small stores is way more beautiful and pleasing in every aspect.
