A few hundred people will migrate but the majority will put up with shit, because they're used to swimming in it.

The question is if we'd even want the majority to migrate.

I personally migrated because I wanted to avoid the majority

I don’t. I want people who will take the extra time to add to the discussion. Most people aren’t going to want to acclimate to the fediverse which I think will filter out a lot of nonsense.
