@Setok@attractive.space Ease of use for whom? To do what? I would absolutely like to see Mastodon and the wider fediverse to grow, but I don't think that it is worth any price, and there are inescapable tradeoffs that need to be struck between growth, ethics and community.
Bigger isn't better, especially not in a society that is so suffused with capitalism, patriarchy, racism, and other unjust power structures and bad incentives.
No platform can be all things for all people.

@pettter@mastodon.acc.umu.se fundamentally I would say: ease of use for everyone. Good usability, fun, and ease benefits all. #Mastodon has a vision, but it's good to make that vision as accessible to as many as possible. Social networks are for connecting people, and everyone on this planet wants to connect somehow.
