I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’m barely using reddit/twitter and now I spend most of my online time on Lemmy/Mastodon.
ugh don’t remind me… i get your point but i still wish for the Fediverse to become more accessible
btw there is a Tiktok clone for the fediverse called Goldfish, although i haven’t tried it lol
also, nice username
Yeah, I’m feeling this is more on Meta having excelent timing with Threads unfortunately
Rather than excellent timing, I would bet that Meta saw the writing on the wall the moment Twitter started doing cuestionable things under Elon. I don’t think they would’ve launched Threads to compete against pre-Elon Twitter.
Also, albeit small in overall users, there’s been a constant exodus of users ever since Elon took over, so they are trying to capitalize on that.
No social network dies over night, but with Threads racing to become the mainstream text-based social media, Twitter will be slowly becoming irrelevant, until it dies.
Edit: Grammar
That’s fine. The user base doesn’t need to be in the nine or ten figures to have a community that has decent activity. Even with the thousands activity has been impressive, and that’s with all this fragmentation across instances too.
The fragmentation doesn’t really matter though, as we can all read and participate in the same threads :)
