niche community will work?

I'm interested in your ideas and strategies.

additionally not quite related to the topic.

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to register on BlueSky, or rather, I managed to, but my account was blocked for suspicious activity a second after registration. Idk why.

don't attract individuals, attract entire groups of people. The idea of moving humans one by one when all of their friends are on centralized platforms will only attract lonely people, who won't be able to promote the platform. The growth will eventually halt.

Move entire communities that are already connected: specific identities, followers of famous people (which should be onboard with the plan), specific subreddits and so on.
