bluesky is full of turbolibs but unfortunately mastodon has too many issues at this moment to really capture the audience fleeing twitter unless they're techies

(I say this as someone for whom mastodon is an ideal online social network but I understand why other people dislike it)

What's the major issues with Mastodon? I prefer it as well and works fine, but maybe I'm missing something.

Inability to consistently see other replies to a post makes already bad reply guy phenomenon worse, total tech worker hegemony, “PRs welcome” or “fork it then” dismissal of all criticism instead of actual engagement, lack of quote tweets removes means of marginalized people to call others to their defense.
