I've seen plenty of extremely competenet tech people try out Mastodon and then quit because they couldn't bother with the UX and all the problems federation brings.

So no, it's not just "unwashed masses", it's people who value their time too much to spend it on some social media technical issues.

>extremely competenet tech people

I'm not competent with tech (I'm not a developer, just a lurker on HN) and I find Mastodon as easy as email if you understand email.

What are these tech people competent about? Do they understand email, at least conceptually?

100% agree.
