The biggest reason that the Twitter/Mastodon/Canceldon/Blocklist side of the fedi struggles to take off is quite simple actually; they're not in the true counterculture. They can go back to Twitter any time they want, their accounts are unbanned, and they state all the state approved political opinions or thoughts online with communities. Nothing is making them use the fedi, and since they're scared of talking to real people who might have different opinions they blocked off most of the active nodes.
So when these people actually leave Twitter due to severe cases of Musk Derangement Syndrome, they are unable to get the same interactions. Someone who would post 30 times a day now and once in a while malding over HackerNews posts only a few times a day, if any. None of these landwhales will get their dicks sucked like on Twitter or a freer instance. Nope. I need only happy thoughts.
