I’ve been telling a lot of people about it, but everyone’s a skeptic. I’ve heard a lot of people saying that they’re just going to wait to see which Reddit clone comes out on top before switching. Most of them haven’t heard of the other parts of the fediverse like mastodon. I’d like to leave fb/instagram, but like many others, all my friends are on there. I’m not against defederation from meta to preserve the sanctity of what we have. (Although I know many of you might be for it as well.) But in a perfect world, I wish that meta would fall apart and all of my friends would switch from instagram over to pixelfed and we would have a great, non corporate internet again.

What do you think?

    My boyfriend joined, but he‘s only using it a little bit and mostly still on Reddit. Though maybe me sending all my memes and stuff from here will eventually get him to come here more.

    The rest, no, they are the types to use TikTok, Twitter and Instagram, they just want to follow a few influencers/famous people, theres no content for that on here and probably for the best anyway. When I want to write to them I use Signal.

    I kinda like the tech enthusiast vibes on here and would like it to stay fairly small, though maybe it will grow eventually to the size of Reddit.
