This is literally the bottleneck of all of fediverse imo.
With ease of use integrated into the fediverse, half of social media could become irrelevant.
My brain went "Firefox has what 7% market share? What's 50% of that?? Actually, that probably is 4x the 'Fediverse' user total right there"
7 was a stand in for a single digit numbet.. didn't realize it was that low. Yikes
Even if it is that low in relative terms, your point probably still stands.
Three percent of all browsers is a fuckton of users, considering that includes mobile users who are going to be less likely to change their browser then desktop users. There is an estimated 6.92 billion smartphone users. Three percent of that is more users than there are people in the United States.
