Mastodon in Japan is really about to take off. It's on tech media every day, multiple mobile client apps emerging, number of users and instances increasing. This is crazy.

@agektmr Interesting. But why specifically in Japan ⁉
Can we try in France to reproduce what made #Mastodon so popular in your country ❓

@agektmr @thomas very hard if not impossible to artificially create a mobile culture if not emerging naturally, Japan is far ahead regarding mobile penetration (China will be even bigger) Twitter in France is of course huge but don't compare with Spain for example or Turkey, all of this to say it's hard to emulate what made these countries flock to twitter or other networks massively...
