    Is there any data on how many actual people still regularly use Twitter? I feel like you’re assuming that that’s where the users are, and maybe that’s still true, but I don’t know a single real life person who still actually uses it.

      X has 600 million users, Mastodon 9-10 million. Even if you assume 2/3 of Xitter are bots, that’s still 20x difference in reach. You should know that you and I are not “normal” for using Mastodon. A group of randomly picked people 9/10 will know of X/twitter, maybe 3/10 have heard of Mastodon.
