I am only on here and Mastodon, is there a socialist argument to be on mainstream social media? (lemmygrad.ml)

I see many socialists on X and Instagram that are not on Mastodon, why is that? Is there a socialist argument as to why these organizations are still there, and should we join them?

Do you want me to pull usage statistics for mastodon vs mainstream social media?

Claiming "nobody is on Mastodon" is a lazy excuse to avoid it. The stats are clear that there is a stark difference, but regardless, organizations should be there too.

There isn’t really a good reason to spend resources on a platform that barely has any people on it.
