Not sure. But I am still using Apollo and I don’t plan on downloading the official app when it dies so at the very least, I will go from 70/30 fediverse to almost 100 percent fediverse.

I’d rather federate with Google plus. I need to get back in touch with my old circles. ;)
I think the main issue is the growth isn’t linear. It’s sporadic. Usually a big bump after every Reddit fuck up. Lots of bumps lately. Another one coming on the 30th.
I think the example of it working like email is the most intuitive for most people. We can all understand that @yahoo.com and @gmail.com interact with eachother despite being different service.
I would also make 1 or 2 recommendations of an instance you like because the overwhelming choice is too much for people. Imagine if you never heard of gmail or yahoo or outlook. Why choose those over @abcjoe.com? When @abcjoe.com end up sucking they’ll probably just think all email sucks.
say what you will about zuck, but he is not an attention whore. Especially when you consider he made a social media site designed to get people to overshare.
Through wifi. They used to have IR blasters that work just like the real remote
Is that not what Chromium is? An open source browser that anyone can adapt to suit their needs.
Someone correct me if I am wrong but ai editor implies the writer will remain and they’re using ai ton “fix” the article and write the headline. Isn’t that one of the main responsibilities of an editor?
Send them a dick pick of their own dick. that glass will be frosty the next time you see it.
please correct me if I’m wrong, but I think this will even block a video on a normal feed with a lot of swearing if someone marks it NSFW.
Let me walk you through my process. Go to join-lemmy and then realize I can’t just join Lemmy, I need to choose a server. So now why go to one place over another. I picked one initially that I didn’t like and apparently isn’t a big one. Then I try beehaw. Beehaw tells me I need to wait to be approved but I can’t even tell if my application went through. Still to this day I am not 100 percent sure if it went through.
Then I joinn sh.itjust.works and hey, great name. Shit just worked. From there it’s not terrible to figure things out but you quickly realize that Lemmy has some rough edges that are obviously going to be a barrier for the masses. Combine that with the fact that the communities simply aren’t quite there yet and it just makes sense. Lemmy is a great start with a ton of potential but I can’t fault the average user for not being ready to make the jump.
The difficulty of entry to fediverse will be the difference between being a reddit replacement and being a separate much smaller community. I don’t fault a non tech minded person for not putting in the effort to learn a new service that they have no attachment to.
C’mon. No single instance has as many users as any of the top 20 sub reddits I bet. Spreading out over 5 main instances is fine. The important thing is if one instance shits the bed, you have options. If the community isn’t served properly they can easily jump to a new instance.

If the docile sheep up North don’t go for it, then there’s no way the slightly less docile sheep South will go for it.
