Thank you for that context. Perhaps then one day Mastodon can try to hope to pull people away from Bluesky after people have given up on Mastodon and on X and spent all that time and energy moving to Bluesky, and then don't want to have to move still yet again. I didn't really use Digg but that seems to me to be an apt analogy where people gave up on it and seeing nothing better switched to Reddit, and then finally we here moved to Kbin, now Mbin, and/or Lemmy, and now PieFed as an option as well. Except so many remained on Reddit.
Once people move to Bluesky, they will stay there and resist moving elsewhere. Many would RATHER move to Mastodon, if only it would make its experience actually usable,. Especially by journalists who then write negative things about their experiences trying to use it and how frustrating it all was for them.
