I have been really surprised by how little progress Mastodon has made in terms of features. Especially compared to something like Calckey.
It really is a little embarrassing for the fediverse I think. Many of the people that went back to Twitter essentially did so because of a lack of features. Some of those were controversial like QTs, but all around it’s a rather spartan platform that sometimes feels like it doesn’t want you to socialise too much.
That being said, it’s also the most stable and snappy. Calckey, I think, has some problematic performance issues. And Lemmy has its issues too, though I’m fairly hopeful they’ll get fixed over time. Mastodon, once you get used to it, kinda just works. For competing platform devs it’s a quality probably worth noticing.
I think the biggest problem with that is all the people complaining about "meta" trying to get into the fediverse (don't get me wrong, I am not a meta user).
Because the protocol is open, it is impossible to stop it. If meta does make a product with better UI, even if they don't change the underlying protocol, guess what the majority of people will be using?
