    Wild that this product is getting so much attention (and so many new users), despite being so uninteresting.

      We don’t like it, but it shows what these social media plattforms can have for power. They can just shit out millions of users, even if it’s not the exact number in this thread, compared to a few thousands of people we managed to fill the Fediverse with.

      Now, if it holds up in value and so on, how much the average user contributes is another meassure. But it’s hard to deny the power of these huge plattforms to a worrying degree.

      Ultimately, there’s a lot of demand for basic social media that’s relatively simple, unobtrusive, isn’t being wielded by a megalomaniac for his culture war issue du jour, and has all the people and friends you’re interested in.

      Given Twitter’s self-immolation, I’m not really that surprised.
