Threads is instagrams version of mastodon / twitter. Even know you can login with instagram it does bring it mainstream

It wouldn't be the same sort of thing, obviously. @loops is trying to be a 30 second video platform closer to what Vine was more than TikTok with their 3 minute videos.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

That might take a while with all 2 million of them lol

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah, well, at least it's said to have that many active users but logging in once in a month to check 1 post. So less than 10 seconds on the website / app counts as active.

I'm sure it's slightly inflated. Hopefully indie developers and other smaller public figures come across.

Yes I’ll stay active in as many places as I can on here especially when I know a topic. Even better now I’ve worked out a way to interact with people on Lemmy through Mastodon

CashApp is only really used in America, it’s basically unheard of over here in the UK

I wouldn't say it would take more than 20 years. People are already annoyed with how much social media they have to move between, as well as the data collecting and adverts they get.

It's that or if some of these bigger creators, stars or business' move across to the Fediverse as their way of communication, then that would increase the user base.

I know people that use Reddit & Twitter purely for their NSFW content, So I don't think taking away Fediverse NSFW content would work for those types of people.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

Because some of the big users on those sorts of platforms have really good content that can be helpful and annoying to login to a tracking monster platform like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or any other main stream social media.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

Creators often have Subreddits and places people want to interact with.

I was more talking about things like PeerTube and the upcoming @loops what is a TikTok Alternative for the Fediverse.

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

It's a Social network, not a social media. Most people don't know the difference

[-] samxavia@mastodon.social 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah, that doesn't seem right. Correction 1: I guess, for instance, they may become pay monthly just to have upkeep and moderation covered themselves. That would be an ok thing in my eyes.

But for content creators and stuff, a pay-to-view system isn't really a good idea. Guess it would have to be done through donations instead, as that's the only thing that sort of makes sense.
