I don't like the clickbait title at all -- Mastodon's clearly going to survive, at least for the forseeable future, and it wouldn't surprise me if it outlives Xitter.

Still, Mastodon is struggling; most of the people who checkd it out in the November 2022 surge (or the smaller June 2023 surge) didn't stick around, and numbers have been steadily declining for the last year. The author makes some good points, and some of the comments are excellent.

Also, let Mastodon shrink if that means that the "market share" of other native Fediverse server apps grows.

The fewer people think the Fediverse is Mastodon, and the more exposure the other stuff in the Fediverse gets and what features it has over Mastodon, the better.

I prefer Mastodon over Twitter for microblogging. However, I didn't use Twitter for microblogging, but to receive news (directly or at least officially) from game devs, directors and other creators.

Drag simply thinks microblogging is boring. Nobody has anything interesting to say and nobody smelled drag's toots.
