1) !Gnusocial is the technical platform. The content is given by users. So when "poetry, dance" isn't discussed further, this is really not the fault of !gnusocial. Politics and religion are not very good topics for social media platforms.
2) If people are not willing to learn something new and if they think !gnusocial is exactly a copy of twitter then this isn't the fault of !gnusocial.
Nobody is forced to come to !gnusocial - everybody is free to choose the platform.
