I’m fully aware of that thanks, I was responding to:
The moment you get actual content creators to move off twitter and provide their content on mastodon, I’m deleting it too.
And saying from the perspective of a content creator, that’s an issue that’s hard to overlook. So mastodon won’t get to that point of having all the content creators if there isn’t something to help them share their content. I don’t know what the solution would be, maybe a separate feed with an algorithm that people can switch to if they want.
Edit: and the antisocial comments below is why mastodon will never take off with the larger population and therefore never really compete with Twitter, Threads, or BlueSky for content.
As somebody who produces content (with a full time job so not as often as I like) it’s so much harder to get engagement on mastodon without the algorithm tbh. I’m trying to get my name out there but engagement is slim to none compared to say, Instagram. I’m not on Twitter but both BlueSky and Mastodon have been a struggle. I don’t see myself devoting too much energy into them as far as posting content goes tbh.
There is a fediverse version of YouTube already called PeerTube. But people are finding it’s incredibly expensive to host video streaming servers and is a large part why it hasn’t really taken off.
At first I thought this might be an overreaction to be perfectly honest. But I just read through some of the Dev responses in the AMA… what the fuck is the issue with removing exploding heads from join-lemmy??
The other questions on the development itself weren’t awesome but wow that comment chain about join-lemmy is something else.
I could overlook the CCP support if they keep it on their instances but funneling people into an instance like that… I’m not sure how to feel about Lemmy either TBH.
Completely agree, I don’t know why their messaging is so shit compared to the GOP. They need more Dark Brandon memes but ones that outline their policies like this lol
This is great to see, the Biden admin has been doing a way better job than I thought they would going into the presidency. Still a long ways off from what I’d ideally want to see but moves like this are always welcome.
Yeah, I’m normally bad at remembering names but his stuck out because it was one I don’t hear often. I also love Never Ending Story, so that was another bonus for me lol
That’s a pretty big something tbh, it makes sense that a mod/admin might not want a minor making sexual jokes on their instance. I’m sorry that happened and as much as it sucks for self expression it’s something to keep in mind until you’re eighteen because it might happen again.
Came to the comments specifically to say this, this is not world news. I hope we can keep this from being so American centric like Reddit was, but the track record hasn’t been super great so far.
