I use twitter and I really like the furry art community on there. I also like Mastodon or related ActivityPub services.

Due to recent events lots of people search for alternatives and I feel just very frustrated see all those artists looking for Zucks Threads or Jacks Bluesky when Mastodon is right there, without a chance of a twitter situation ever happening again. They seem to avoid Mastodon like cats avoiding water.
What have we done wrong, and how can we make it better.

    I remember a viral post on Twitter from someone listing nothing but complaints about Mastodon/federation which was written after the big furry instance, snouts.online, imploded. This was a few years ago. I’ll admit it made me skeptical about the fediverse, but after actually trying it out for myself it’s not as bad as that thread made out. Might be that that thread is still in the back of people’s minds when they consider twit alternatives.
