Mostly "Mastodon is too hard" is an excuse people make because they just don't like it and/or dislike the Fediverse in general and don't want people to move there.

I 'interrogated' a bunch of people complaining about Mastodon and it was pretty obvious that a lot of them either didn't like the idea of Twitter replacements and/or were Elon Musk fanboys.
