Soaring? 2.1M users is soaring? I'm all for the Fediverse, but it will never reach mainstream social media numbers, and honestly I hope it doesn't.

I honestly hope the Fediverse does become the predominant medium through which online social discourse takes place. Probably not going to happen, but I can dream.

As long as no single instance dominates the entirety of the Fediverse, I think it could avoid many of the pitfalls of centralized social media platforms.
