Does it still seem difficult to understand, use, etc? did you come across anything positive?
tumblr and reddit and twitter shit the bed (and it looks like youtube’s reaching for the exlax), if it was only one, i don’t think i’d have made the jump. I’ve also discovered that I don’t actually care about the difference between a handful of people and a few hundred thousand in mini-communities like these.
I am fueled by my deep, loathing hatred for the snoo site. Plus I found a really great local instance where people are pretty chill.
To be honest I’m still skeptical of the Fediverse as a long term endeavor, but I’m going to give it a fair shake in the meantime.
That said, I was never much of a heavy user of twitter or reddit anyway, so watching the Fediverse explode while various corporate entities implode is just popcorn entertainment.
