Sorry I did not mean it does not “matter at all”, but I certainly think this is going to be a minority. Although this will be great for Mastodon users, Kbin’s userbase is already small, young, growing but small, and the portion of users using microblogging of that is low.
I don’t think these things matter man, unless they create a community on the threadiverse, most of us on kbin use threads, microbloggig is the minority and full-on microblogging people simply use mastodon.
I’d counter that with the fact that most of their lineup is still dominated by SUV models and I wouldn’t be surprised if most of their sales are from the SUVs either, although I don’t have sales data in-hand atm.
Yeah it might be an added “Bonus” for people in the long-term besides threads, I think Kbin is certainly starting to cater to the audience that are mainly here for threads but it’s also “nice” to have microblogging to keep in touch with both.
