We're standing effectively at the beginning of the race for mass adoption of the federation concept and you're declaring mastodon a failure based on the content of the earliest adopters. Lemmy is also 90% reddit refugees and discussions about the reddit refugees if you're using "All" as your sole metric. Granted, reddit refugees were able to coordinate a mass migration that will probably be far more effective at creating lasting community with rich content at lemmy/kbin federated sites than twitter refugees, but it's a bit early to say mastodon "never took off."
