I see a lot of posts here saying “#Mastodon should do xyz if it wants to become mainstream/grow/appeal to more people”. Yes, lots of features could be made more intuitive or easier. But the reason it’s “behind” is also the intrinsic good at its core - Masto isn’t “competing” against anyone, it doesn’t have growth targets or marketing campaigns. No one is paying to buy your data here, there is no profit incentive to get people to join. Doing things the right way takes time #fediverse
