...because people will realize there are better platforms without privacy violations and ads where they can still interact with their friends and transition.
Like Mastodon and others have basically all of the benefits and none of the drawbacks.
Without ads YET. Once the "masses" arrive, donations are no longer an option.
I mean they could try it but people would just migrate to a different server so there would be no point.
The main Mastodon instance has 1.5M users and no ads.
Is 1.5M users "the masses" to you? Reddit has like 400M active users monthly. That's the scale I'm talking about.
Registered users is a very bad metric too.
It's 1.5M users on a single server. There are literally thousands of servers.
