Lazy. Most people don't want to learn how shit works. They just want it to work. They'll get what they pay for in the end.

edit: downvote all you want. it's a correct assertion to the question. just because you don't like it doesn't make it not correct.

Hardcore facebookers don't care even if zuck fed babies to pet lion every morning. TikTokers are even worse. Clout is what they are and that's all they care about. Switching to an another system is a no go and if you bring it up they get really pissy.

The fediverse needs to be plug and play. Blaming non techy users is a cop out.

Default instances with little to no defederation

When did you begin using the fediverse? I didn't stop being lazy until I joined diaspora in 2011.

When Spez went full cunt. To be fair, I was an IRC nerd to start off though.

Maybe it's possible that there are many people who are not on the fediverse today for reasons similar to why you weren't two years ago. Not that much has changed since then (other than, possibly, your own understanding).
