I run a Mastodon instance and to be quite honest the fact that it’s kind of hidden and obscure is part of the appeal for me. It’s a nice quiet little place for me and some people I like to hang out. It’s never going to be huge, it doesn’t need to be huge, it just needs to be a place for me to talk to my friends. Not every social space needs to be planet-scale.

RTC’s pitch doesn’t make me want to learn more but there are probably people here who are totally into what it’s offering.
