Wow I didn't know Mastodon failed that massively in converting people from Twitter. Then again, maybe it's not that surprising.

That's not how the fediverse works, Mathstodon is just one of many servers in the network (running the Mastodon software).

yes, and unfortunately almost all of the servers are unable to cope with even a moderate amount of traffic

Twitter is a far better user experience in that respect, to the point that I actively avoid clicking mastadon links now because they fail so often
