People just want a Twitter replacement that's not owned by Musk and are willing to jump to the next best thing. I wish they'd go with Masto over Bluesky/Threads, but those have Brand Recognition.

Really doesn't feel like any of them are ready yet. I think Lemmy works really well because the tools you need for building communities are quite simple but Twitter-style social media is deceptively more daunting
