Someone needs to create some European Mastodon instances with names like “OpenThread[.de|.it|.fr]” and market it as an alternative to Meta Threads.
They can create a proper grassroots marketing campaign and offer federation with other ActivityPub instances.
The problem with Mastodon adoption by the mainstream is the tyranny of choice. Normies want to be told which instance to sign up for, they don’t want to have to make the decision themselves. This is the only reason people think that signing up for Mastodon is difficult.
