This wave feels different from the previous ones. It's not just the techies scouting things out anymore. They're actively bringing non-tech friends over.
And there's quite a few people migrating who use social media professionally, who often have a rather large following.

If Musk continues this barrage of bad news for a little longer, these friend groups and professionals might get beyond the initial exploration phase and establish the Fediverse as a place where they're active.

In either case, a lot of people are learning about the Fediverse and might be more willing to migrate in the future.
