I for one have not been able to get any of my close friends into anything fedi. But instead they were the first ones to talk to me about threads and they've enjoyed it too. They've said very similar things to what I used to say about mastodon when I originally joined.
That's exciting in my opinion. I want the internet to go the way of all of these federated services and meta adopting it is a way towards that (no matter what you think of zucc and his company and morales) instead of it just being some weird gatekeepy little niche in the corner that I'm starting to see it as.
Yes, but you can make an additional set of friends in the Fediverse based on your interests instead. That's what I'm trying to do.
