…and the fediverse doesn’t need to dominate all social media. Period.

You’ll never be able to migrate the IG influencer whose affiliate marketing business relies on the algorithm, or the Titkok million views dude who makes money off their views and lives. So I really don’t understand this argument of “Oh we’re alienating mass users”.

Just like there’s non-profit orgs vs businesses, open source software vs commerical ones, there also fediverse vs commercial social media. I prefer it here, and to each their own.

And they don’t have to join. I really don’t mean this in a dismissive way and respect their opinion. But why all this worrying about the need to have the fediverse dominate all social media? Maybe it’s meant to be this way: your vibe decides your tribe. My vibe isn’t commercial, toxic political talk, or influencers, thus my tribe is the fediverse instead of IG or Tiktok.

I use Eternity on android and it’s a fantastic and much cleaner feel than reddit.

I love this! Totally agree, and you know what? I don’t need to give you an “award” and enrich the site owners with unnecessary money waste. I hope it never changes too. Quality over quantity.

This is awesome, I’ve been looking for a goodreads alternative. Not sure between this and bookwyrm. Both are awesome.
