  • To a certain extent I think the list of goals has sort of defaulted to development related stuff. A lot of the growth across the fediverse is being driven by whatever mass exodus is happening at any given time. There’s definitely a desire to onboard more people more organically but it’s hard when people are expecting drop in replacements for the largest social networks on the planet.

    There seem to be a lot of people who are looking for easier ways to introduce people to federated social media as a whole. If you search around I’m sure you’ll find an assortment of posts outlining their ideas about what makes Lemmy/the fediverse harder to use. Maybe that’s a good place to start building a more comprehensive list of what’s needed to grow more on merit and not as a last resort.











  • It’s fine mate, I’m not here to crucify people who want to or have moved to piefed for any reason. People should be able to go where they feel comfortable and welcome and be happy about it. Do what you want and what works for you, of course. All I’m saying is that people should take note of what has happened and why, and do what they can to mitigate that problem going forward.

    As long as communities are migrated and redirects are up before the last day of lemm.ee the transition will be miles ahead of what we’ve seen in the past where instances go dark without warning. Communities and users survived then and they will survive now I’m sure.

    It’s just a bit strange to see all the people saying how they would’ve helped lemm.ee if they’d known sooner or if more cries would’ve gone out, and then nobody spins up instances to actually DO the things they say.
