   @tiago @academicchatter @vicgrinberg I’ve been trying to tell the project maintainers for years (it also affects other groups), but there seems to be too much inertia.

     It seems like Mastodon is losing its mindshare to #Bluesky among many academics.

     I can't help but think this has to do with the self-imposed limitations of Mastodon — lack of quotes, ordered timeline, etc. Makes it less interesting to use, for no real advantage.

     Sad, because the underlying decentralization is much more robust.
