Mastodon has gained 106,723 monthly active users since the end of March (when Elon bought 9.2% of Twitter's shares). 93,603 are new accounts. Overall that's a 42% increase in Mastodon's MAU.
I assume this is mastodon.social. Small compared to twitter, but it’s progress.
Partly cause people expect an exact Twitter which mastodon doesn’t really aim to be. Some people will enjoy the organic growth of connections others won’t. Plus lack of feature parity with twitter and the complications of a federated timeline and a local timeline. People in general dont have the patience to try and learn something new.
Why? Those are accounts, not views.

Exactly, people fleeing twitter will find something that is definitely not twitter and they will bounce.
I say that as someone who likes what mastodon is and don’t want it to become twitter.
