    I am well aware of the fact that the masses have mobilized to join the EU (like in Georgia) but I don’t think I have ever seen mass protests in favour of joining NATO.

    There’s a reason most of those countries had a referendum about joining EU but not about joining NATO

    why wasn’t the same sentiment shared for the Baltics?

    Baltics joined NATO in 2004 when Russia was still very much appeasing USA. Also Baltics are way harder to use to invade Russia than Ukraine for several reasons.
