@darius That’s funny but I don’t see it to work this way.
Why would non-tech people want to try out a new social network no one is using at the start (besides from the other fediverse server instances)? Mastodon’s promise was to be a decentralized, FLOSS, non-commercial Twitter alternative. And this promise was what got it attention from other devs contributing and making it better. Normal people wouldn’t want to suffer from massive bugs or missing core features without a philosophy.
