What is it with the furry art community and mastodon? (kbin.social)

I use twitter and I really like the furry art community on there. I also like Mastodon or related ActivityPub services.

Due to recent events lots of people search for alternatives and I feel just very frustrated see all those artists looking for Zucks Threads or Jacks Bluesky when Mastodon is right there, without a chance of a twitter situation ever happening again. They seem to avoid Mastodon like cats avoiding water.
What have we done wrong, and how can we make it better.

I’m never going to see that much content beyond my own instance.

I just do not see that. The way I found artists I like on twitter was by what other artists I like retweeted or based on specific hashtags. And thats the same way I found all artists I like on Mastodon that I did not yet know from Twitter.
Like yes sure the amount of people simply is larger on Twitter, so that is a valid point. Yet I see tons of artists I like going onto Bluesky which is invitation only and made by a club of web3 people which is something normally famously unpopular with art twitter, or Threads which is limited to the US and UK. There is the same problem, yet artists flock to it.
