I live thousands of miles away from my family and my friends. I don't fly any more so I very rarely see them.
So I am almost obliged to show up every couple of weeks to see people's life events. Many of my friends are getting quite old, quite a few have died...
Every month or two I post Mastodon and Signal links on Facebook, and try to convince people to join. It hasn't happened.
Twitter on the other hand is completely dispensable...
