What makes you think we're not already there?
Once prominent celebrities and more news agencies start to come (and they will, the BBC is a sign of that) the culture will shift faster than you really realize. There is still an insular culture around the fediverse that tends to be a big barrier around entry for "normies" right now. Going on a mastodon instance as a new user with limited technical knowledge can be quite jarring especially if you step out of line of what it seen as culturally fitting for the fediverse
It's very much a nerd/geek environment at the moment. There isn't much for normies to look at..yet.
God, imagine the reaction when it's Facebook refugees coming and not Redditors
BBC R&D is a special case.. they're specifically there to try out new stuff. It isn't always reflected in the rest of the company. They implemented ipv6 years ago for example, but the main bbc website remains ipv4 only.
The Big Black Cock is a sign of all that? 🤔
