It seems like due to the downfall of Twitter and Reddit, people will be moving to the Fediverse instead, and since there is not much here, people won’t be addicted to it anymore.

Additionally, it’s open-source and de-centralized as well, which omits censorship. What do you guys think?

    I’d share your optimism if Zuck hadn’t come out with Threads to the apparently very positive reception it’s had. A lot of people who are on Twitter are also on Facebook/Instagram and the ease of extending those accounts to Threads means that most of them, when they get fed up with Musk, will just trade one giant social media corporation for another and nothing will change.

      Well, something will change, which is that Meta will be strengthening their monopoly over most major social media sites

        Meh. Does it really matter which psychopathic, emotionally stunted billionaire steals your personal data and controls your access to information? It’s not like they won’t sell it all to each other under the table for the right price anyway. What people have to do is get out from under the thumbs of anyone in Zuck or Musk’s position.
