Yeah I think they’re underestimating how many people just won’t use the official app. The people who use Apollo, RiF, Relay, etc. are pretty attached.
I know for me reddit is just the app on my phone that I press when I’m bored now. I figured when the app doesn’t work anymore I’ll just find entertainment elsewhere, which is how I found the fediverse. Now that I’m here the whole concept of decentralized interconnected communities has totally sold me on the project.
The problem with reddit, Twitter, twitch, etc. as I see it is that they’re all just trying to profit off their users somehow. That’s not conducive to fostering healthy communities of people. I think this whole thing is the future of social networking, take the big corps out of the equation.
like, if this can exist without corp control, wouldnt we want to try? why is it like pulling teeth with some people to see the benes of more social spaces on the internet
we see what they do with things like twitter, facebook, reddit, digg, and so many more
why do these tech assholes have any credibility anymore. i mean i know why, but its still surprising to see the malding
