1 . The extra steps to find a fedi instance and create a new account is usually too tedious for the post-first-think-later kind of guy.

2 . The like/dislike function are present, but the lack of shitty function like karma, medals etc. don’t push the users in some kind of frenzy “contest” where copy-pasted crap or Ai-slop flood the platform.
