Agreed. I’m using the wefwef web app and I am quite astounded by the quality. The onboarding process is reasonably streamlined so I can see many stick around here. Lemmy has - imo - a far better shot of becoming a mainstay than Mastodon. There I see very little engagement.
I was your typical on-the-fence guy for years, installing Linux a couple of times a year, hopping between distros but eventually always returned to Windows. Those days are over for good.

Still on an Apple laptop but once they pull similar shit with their telemetry that’s it.
