I'm not defending X or anything, I'm just asking people to read the damn article before going in with the obligatory "Why not Mastodon?" If they had read the article, they would've known that the project has a Mastodon account already and we wouldn't have been wasting our time.

Fair. The common user uses the easiest, most accessible programs and applications. At this time, lemmy or mastodon is not common.

Make a fancy colorful app with big buttons and fun pictures and people will flock here. From what I see, the common user base here is advanced level tech people.
