I don't want to call the kids stupid. It's the Network Affect. Apple has a sleek design and like two phones. Android it really uneven in quality and capabilities between mid range end high end. I've been on Androids since 2012 and love them. I can however understand why iPhone caught on and then you're friends are on they're and you want to be. Social pressure doesn't make kids stupid just human.

Do you believe Lemmy/Mastodon can become mainstream and fully replace their centralized counterparts?

I'm brand new here. I created logins at 3 instances. It's not clear that you only need to log into one instance. Then communities are only discoverable if someone already linked to it on your instance. If I'm understood it right. All that to say-that's a lot more friction to Signup and be scrolling entertaining content compared to Reddit. I'm trying to move mostly here, but there are some support communities on Reddit only. Finding new communities is definitely more complex than Reddit.

I'm here here for it, but let's recognize there is a learning curve that will turn people off with limited time and mental bandwidth to pickup a new thing for fun.
