Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I think the idea of federated social media itself would have made fediverse sky rocket itself. bloggers tooters and video creators or any kind of internet user can connect with eachother here. but that hasn't happened. not at least yet. so why?

what are the problems. or what things are missing on the fediverse that makes it still so unpopular?

very often invested in their long-term footprint in the former environment

I would not mention this yet.

There is a lot of teens from a few years ago that only promote consumerist culture: buying non-needed hardware every 2 years or when main companies promote new exigent game, etc.

I think this is the least probable group of adopters for now, at least until we reach the early majority stage. They live in a groomed bubble of corpoinfluence and are not likely to break out on themselves. The demographics, however, is on our side. In every generation there is always a group of dissidents, actively looking for something "above and beyond" and -- even bigger -- a group of those who see no alternative but getting molded into a shape that mainstream dictates.

There are already a lot of them inside. You can mostly check it in the Pleroma side.

It think that the reasons where quite different to the rest of people to join.
