The more users Mastodon has, the bigger the incentive for public figures to be there.
I created a Mastodon account today, so I’m doing my part.
Need to thank Musk and Spez for pushing their users to the fediverse.
I never used Twitter but after using Lemmy I fell in love with the Fediverse and created a Mastodon account.
I started following accounts that were on my RSS feed and I’m currently using Mastodon as an RSS on steroids. I may use it more in the future but for now it’s a good start.
While playing video games for hours with no break.
Now she’s buying upvotes on Lemmy too!!

I expect this to evolve like email did. It used to be very easy to host your own mail server but due to spam the large providers started using whitelists and nowadays it’s almost impossible to have a self hosted mail server that is approved by the others.
Similarly, I expect that hosting your own Lemmy instance will be impossible in the future. We should enjoy it while we can.
I wish Reddit apps were promoting Lemmy in their shut down message to users.
When Chrome was first launched, so many people thought Incognito would be useless. Little did they know.
I fully migrated but the vast majority of users won’t. In fact, a significant portion of users that try Lemmy will likely go back to Reddit.
This is what happened with the Twitter -> Mastodon migration: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/06/op-ed-why-the-great-twittermigration-didnt-quite-pan-out/
Moderating is time consuming, tedious and done by volunteers. I’m not surprised that they get overrun after the latest influx of users.
Most reddit topics were about Digg in the days following the Digg exodus. Over time, discussion shifts naturally.
Lemmy needs to make Hot the default. It’s a better experience for new users.
If you actually want a smart fridge then be aware that when the display breaks, they will charge you the price of a new fridge to replace it.
I would consider the broken display to be a feature tho.
Vivaldi and Brave can modify Chromium to disable this feature. Chromium is open source after all.
