    better services

    Not better in terms of Metcalfe’s Law.

    Not better in terms of instantly being able to engage with your whole prospective audience, not having to build an audience one Fedi server at a time.

    I say this as someone who has contributed money, servers, and PRs to alternative social media networks.

      It is better for the planet, its better for mental health, better for diversity, accessibility, open information, its better in every way but the fact people won’t move. the argument of “well people aren’t there so im not even going to try” is frustrating because it abstracts the blame of lack of users to the platform instead of the individuals who are refusing to even try.
