I don’t really see Mastodon “catching on” in the mainstream unless BlueSky fucks something up big time. So much of a social network’s success is determined by, uh, network effects.
BlueSky happened to be in the right place at the right time and got a critical influx of influential users, and Mastodon just didn’t.
Unfortunately it’s not nearly decentralized enough to be good in the long run. Wish people would go to mastodon instead.

Yeah. People are gonna trap themselves in centralized corpo platforms forever until they learn to value free media and decentralization
