What is it with the furry art community and mastodon? (kbin.social)

I use twitter and I really like the furry art community on there. I also like Mastodon or related ActivityPub services.

Due to recent events lots of people search for alternatives and I feel just very frustrated see all those artists looking for Zucks Threads or Jacks Bluesky when Mastodon is right there, without a chance of a twitter situation ever happening again. They seem to avoid Mastodon like cats avoiding water.
What have we done wrong, and how can we make it better.

It so happens that gen-z actually ranks lower in advanced tech skills. Gen-Z learned to use tech, but not to understand it as much as those of us who experienced the early-to-mid internet and computers.

The kids today do not even know what a folder is, or what filesystems do. I am scared about our all future.
We need to do it like the brits, give every kid a Rasperry Pi in school and teach them actual computer skills, not Excel.

It is by design, unfortunately. Apple pushes iPads into schools so that people grow up in Apple's walled garden.
