I honestly think it sure will. People will probably go in 3 directions:
- Mastodon
- Wait for Bluesky
- Wait for Instagram “Threads”
Honestly, if people go fediverse way, they definitely should choose something like Misskey/Calckey. They’re much better options than mastodon IMO
They went from 500 new users an hour to 4000 new users an hour in the past day. Im sure it’s all due to Twitter. Now, how many people will stick with it and become active users is anyone’s guess.
