I don't understand why there isn't an alternative version of Twitter that is as easy to use. The MAGA crowd managed to do this multiple times. But something with the complexity of Mastodon, Discord, etc. won't have mass appeal.
@shahed I'm not so sure about the success the alt right has with social media. Sites that are specifically right wing are complete failures and 4chan isn't specifically made for them either, it's just where they happen to thrive
@aeonbigman @shahed also how is mastodon complicated? Make account -> start posting. Usernames work just like email addresses.
@eramseth @shahed I do think the regular mastodon app is a bit confusing, that's why I use tusky. And I'm sure most people coming in rn don't know that you can use different clients so maybe that's why
@aeonbigman @shahed a long time since I looked into it, but are there not 3rd party clients for twitter?
