Six reasons why I'm not reading this article.

Click bait headline

Doom premise

Random author who has no say on if a platform does or does not succeed

Its impossible for mastodon to "not survive" because it's decentralized

I've already read a million articles like this that always boil down to "I don't like this therefore it will fail" or "it's not exactly like Twitter therefore it will fail" or the one I sympathize but hate hearing is "it's to hard"
