Basically, none of the B-List celebrities are never going to give up their followings on Twitter.
If the A-List comes over to the Fediverse, we could become a thing as a Twitter replacement. But short of a national stampede, they aren’t coming unless ALL of the sheeple go first.
Bluesky seems to be pretty successful at drawing the "B-listers" from twitter, much more than threads at least. We'll see if they actually stay but it's been surprisingly positively received so far, for some reason that I can't comprehend.
It’s been ‘positively received’ because it’s still invite-only, giving it an air of exclusivity. Plus, it has Twitter’s founder on the board and people really miss what it used to be for…some reason.
