Still not convinced. If Mastodon or ActivityPub dies we’ll have Bluesky and AT. Not worried. Good to have options.

I wish

any links to said discords?

That’s really cool, do you have any tutorials or something? How do you watch the files? Plex?

I know we all dream of having all our friends and family on the Fediverse so we can avoid proprietary networks completely. But the Fediverse is not looking for market dominance or profit. The Fediverse is not looking for growth. It is offering a place for freedom. People joining the Fediverse are those looking for freedom. If people are not ready or are not looking for freedom, that’s fine. They have the right to stay on proprietary platforms. We should not force them into the Fediverse. We should not try to include as many people as we can at all cost. We should be honest and ensure people join the Fediverse because they share some of the values behind it.

This is incredibly naive. Mastodon/ActivityPub is much more popular than XMPP was lol

Why are people mad at this? Being able to communicate with Threads users from mastodon servers, is good? Right?

Yep. Finding new users and Content on mastodon is impossible because the nerds who run it hate THE ALGORITHM and social media addiction. Same reason they held out on basic features like quote tweeting until recently.

Bluesky is basically just OG twitter, plus you can make your own algorithm feeds. It’s cool.

I started using real debrid once rarbg fell. Game changer

I’m on lemmy.ml and it works
