I don't use or post on Mastodon enough. It could be an effective way to resist the enshitification of the internet. So why is it still relatively small?

For Mastodon and Peertube to work, people have to re-train their preferences for social media on a different scale and with different intent. Maybe this is already happening and I am clueless.
