  • Do they want to make the switch? If they don’t, they won’t.

    You can’t force or convince the mainstream to get to the Fediverse when pretty much all of their connections are on the mainstream network.

    That’s why I think Lemmy/Piefed are the ones that have the biggest chance of sticking, because they’re aimed to a public that’s not necessarily mainstream.

    I know they exist and I totally respect it, but I’m not even sure if it makes much of a sense an Instagram/TikTok alternative on the Fediverse, considering these social media are aimed around getting visibility either by personal relationship or by popularity (volume over quality). And I don’t think that the Fediverse public as of now is looking to become that.
