Honestly, I wonder how fast the Xitter would truly bomb if, say, Taylor Swift('s people) set up her own Mastodon instance and invited her millions of fans to the Fediverse.

*(I know some people here poopoo the idea of celebs joining because "anything popular in the mainstream must be bad" or whatever, but the inertial mass of fandom cannot be underestimated, and celebrity role models are a thing, for better or worse.)
