Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)

Exactly! All a person has to do is to look around - the right buys up all popular media platforms and converts them to propaganda outlets.

mastodon is already the next twitter, bluesky is just a direct copy of it with nothing keeping it from going the same way. mastodon is open source (can't be corpoed), federated (can talk to other platforms/instances so being on a small one doesn't hurt anything), and most importantly, uses a protocol that doesn't make self-hosting impossible due to storage requirements.

I signed up today. I never liked Twitter but I will give it a try. Steam (PC gaming platform) is a member so that's a plus for me.

Not a big surprise it's only the alternatives to twitter and instagram.

You don't just trade 1 powerful ceo for another when you get the chance to leave. Ridiculous.

Really hoping legislators in Sweden don't force Signal to pull its services from the country. 🫣
