it’s a combination of factors. The software is not super robust, the feature set is not what people demand, it doesn’t have the financial needed, nor the developer quantity, and people really want an algorithm despite what a lot of people in the fediverse say. The problem is you have to consider what drives people to platforms like Twitter or Instagram in the first place, and a lot of those ideals do not directly mesh with the core fundamentals of your average FOSS enthusiast. It’s part of why I have become a big fan of blue sky is they are sort of tackling all sides at once. it’s free and open source, it has algorithms, it’s federated, It’s financially backed, it has a pretty big dev team, It is written in modern web development languages that a lot of other web developers also use. They just overall thought about it well and are executing efficiently. I’m not sure there’s any other platform that you could really consider jumping to instead of mastodon if you care about free and open source and you want to be where the people are.

Even worse, mug is trash

I promise you mastodon will never, ever be a true Twitter competitor.

It’d weigh 75 tons assuming that to be 5ft x 5ft x 5ft

jalapeños are really good even without heat. It’s just a good pepper. I don’t see any issue.

I’ve used it a few times, impressive as hell in how simple and effective it is on a small home lab.

It didn’t take over most of its competition’s userbase magically, they have a well designed system despite its flaws.

Big “I don’t even think of you” energy. I’m here for it.

I understand the math, that isn’t the problem. It’s how it looks. I have a struggle parsing it.

it has nothing to do with the equation itself, but the way that it looks. I understand the basics of the mathematics, but looking at it in this form does not work for me.

I am in the completely opposite camp of you, I cannot, for the life of me comprehend the equation in this form.

Do you think that spending $2000 on something you enjoy like a hobby means that you should have a more expensive car?

Regardless, it’s a meme targeting the idea that Nissan drivers, especially Altima drivers, are aggressive road rage drivers and poor decision makers. Just googling “Nissan altima aggressive” shows plenty of examples of this idea.
