Not GP, but the utility of a social app is linked to network effects - i.e. the more people who use it, the more utility it provides. Otherwise you're risking tooting to the wind.

There are diminishing returns at a certain point though, the crowd gets so large that utility stops increasing.
I want to interact with experts in subjects I'm interested in, the occasional media figure, and some brands. Sadly brands are lacking, but I get enough of the rest on Mastodon to keep me happy.
It's a shame Patrick Rothfuss isn't on Mastodon, but John Scalzi is, so that's cool.
