Lonely? I never felt such a sense of communality than here

[-] ruck_feddit@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

I feel the same. I have real conversations and get real answers, without some annoying moderator or karmabot inserting themselves and stopping the discourse

You're delusional.

The fediverse stuff is just a bullet point on a sales sheet, Facebook doesn't give a shit about federating with Lemmy or Mastodon or whatever.

The reason they don't give a shit is they already have a user base that is multiple times larger than Lemmy and Mastodon combined. Also normal people don't even know what those things are. My mom doesn't know what Mastodon is, she does know what Twitter and threads is.

I think fediverse servers should adopt a set of sustainable limits for themselves, one of which should be: do not maintain more than X active users. If they have over that amount, they should shut down signups. If they don't shut down signups, everyone else should defederate them until they cooperate.

Oh man, this is genuinely depressing. I just checked it out for the first time and almost every thread I see is "omg this is so much better than twitter" "Guess we're all on threads now?" and just complete lack of awareness of the fediverse at all, and I'm just sitting here like "the fediverse has been better than twitter...and facebook....and instagram... and reddit.... for a long time now....." but everyone is just gonna throw flowers at Facebook for making a hackneyed handicapped version of it and there's nothing we can do.

This time next year everywhere you see little social media buttons and links the threads symbol will be there by default and people will still have no idea about Lemmy or Mastadon. I'm gonna try really hard to focus on how much of a good thing that is because of its lessening of the horrors of Eternal September in these spaces.
