The first I’ve heard of this platform is when it’s shutting down… might be why it did.

    the app maxed out at 3,000 daily active users, out of 20,000 registered users.

    This is smaller than many mastadon instances.

      It was invite only, not open registration, so not surprising they didn’t have many users. Although Bluesky is the same and that seems to have loads. Hmm.

      I had an account but literally used it for five seconds and then largely forgot about it.

          it feels more like twitter did, and it is more centralised and less technologically focused, so more normie-friendly.

            I think it should take for someone to make a mastodon instance that just doesn’t boast about federation yet is federated for this to take off more. People say “join mastodon” or “join lemmy” but then you’re hit with a list of servers and you just give up. Contrary to something like “join talkfunhouse.com” which is actually a federated instance
