So, is it getting quieter here in the #Fediverse; is it even dying? That I don’t know, but I can add some data: At least for @heiseonline it seems to be the opposite; the number of comments and likes keeps on growing.#Mastodon #SocialMedia @fediverse
Wir können in den letzten Monaten einen deutlichen Rückgang der aktiven Nutzenden feststellen. Doch was genau sind die Gründe dafür und was können wir dagegen tun?
Hey yall! I suppose I’m slowly getting back to federated platforms and soon off of reddit. Is there anything I need to know before browsing thru piefed? I heard Lemmy has had some past controversies and i made a post via my lemmy.blahaj.zone account where the comments section got heated, so i decided to show up here on piefed.social. Not yet ready to instance hop yet as I heard some of these developments have been new. So catch me up, how does Piefed feel?
BMX Escape is a very cool synthwave band that I really enjoy listening to. And as of yesterday they have a Mastodon account, which is partially because of me.
You know, lemmy world has the largest population, so it’s really obvious when things are getting blocked. I finally did a search today on their side. Only one or 2 per day are coming through. I suspected that they regulated their content, but why not just block me? So weird.
When trying to convince people to move to Fediverse services, people will often refer to them as “alternatives”, calling Mastodon a Twitter-alternative, PeerTube a YouTube-alternative, etc. But I don’t think this is the most effective approach.
What I'm imagining is that someone running a project (like a game studio for example) creates an instance of PieFed or Lemmy or whatever, disables sign-ups, creates community(-ies) for their project(s), and lets people post there.
