5 million on a currently-centralized platform is still doing significantly better than Mastodon.
The constant whininess of Mastodon/ActivityPub-services users is a fantastic reason to completely steer clear of it.
You know mastodon is 50M++ right?
Not active users, unless you’re willing to cite that claim. Maybe accounts created over the last few years.
Making Mastodon seem more active than what it is won’t help adoption.
Adding Threads would significantly help boost active user numbers but people are too busy crafting foil hats.
