In terms of the current wave of people deserting X for #BlueSky I think that extolling the virtues of decentralisation and the fediverse to the masses was never going to be a sane strategy. It's too complex ...
If we just said "Get an account on mastodon.social" It's be a lot easier to get people bought in. For those that might get it, follow that with "other options are available" and see if they care when they react ...

Oh and one other thing. If the people you point at mastodon.social are the type of people who are reasonably well off, maybe also suggest the "If it's useful to you, give the people running the servers a bit of money to help with their costs" is a good way to help explain how this sort of thing can work in practice ... It'll be fine to pay less than your mobile, music or Netflix subscription ...
It's up to us, the users, to push it if we want to make this a ubiquitous system ...

I've never got into instagram (although I did create an account years ago). Didn't really like anything about it, even more so once Facebook acquired it.
But @pixelfed is something I can get on board with and I'm going to give it a shout for something because I believe in it and want to encourage others to do so. Leading by example is the way we can win people across to the #Fediverse #pixelfed

Hmmm looks like the main @pixelfed Android app doesn't allow multiple accounts. Any suggestions for others that do? #pixelfed #Fediverse
