This is something that should take time so that it is done correctly. It would be much harder to get people on board if you had to fix things after launching.
I assume it's even harder to move an existing product to the Fediverse than it is to create a new platform from scratch
But they're not moving people to the fediverse, they're basically rolling out the same plugin integration that is available for WordPress already and the only reason they're even attempting that is because they've not given up on monetizing Tumblr and in order to do that, they have to garner more traffic of which they feel that Tumblr can get with the rising tide of primarily Mastodon.
I've said it before, I'll say it again, people should move their Tumblr accounts to FireFish.
use CoHost :)
