Deceptive. Half the tech people I used to follow on Twitter now post exclusively on Mastodon.
I would have been happy on Mastodon too, and I don't know why it didn't catch on with non-tech people, but it just hasn't. So Bluesky is our main opportunity for an open social web, at this time.
The number of dead links I've had where the shard is down or overloaded is way too high
The design simply doesn't work imo
Labeling another post as deceptive and then trying to use just one demographic (and not a very large one at that) as proof for whether mastodon is "large" in percentage terms is not very reassuring as to the level of discussion on Mastodon tbh.
