Purism, a company known for doing privacy-focused smartphones and fediverse related services, argues that the advancements of machine learning supports a further push for decentralization.
My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...
Personally I find Kbin more usable (while still being reddit-like) as it also has functionality letting you follow on normal microblogging content from Mastodon and other places, making it more intertwined with the whole fediverse.
The way Lemmy works right now is you search a community in your instance for it to then get shown, so you need to first discover that community from elsewhere. With that in mind, what are some growing communities that you discovered that could get some more love?
There are a lot of communities to discover on kbin.social's magazines , I have also made my own community for Buddhism, although I'm not sure how many people here are really interested in that.
If the reddit exodus happens and Lemmy gets even 2% of reddit's daily active users, how will Lemmy sustain the increased traffic? I know donations are an option, but I don't think long term donations will be sustainable. Most users will never donate....
From the information in the OG reply it seems pretty out of hand to me though, which makes the switch to Kbin that much easier as it's just plain better, and have full functionality to interact with microblogs. If Lemmy was the only one it would makes sense to fork it if needed, but now we have like 3 reddit-like fediverse platforms that we can choose between.
It is called lotide. You can read about it here https://sr.ht/~vpzom/lotide/ , I guess there is also a 4th one called prismo, but the developer put down their project for various reasons, so i don't count it in.
Many might not know, but the developers of Lemmy are communist tankies - and i'm not joking - that spread propagranda and misinformation. They for example deny the genocide of the Uighurs in China as it is a "hoax perpetated by the western propagandists"....
@Kaldo We already have flipboard, Mozilla and others investing heavily. So I don't think it's out of the question. But we do not really know of profitable the fediverse is for investment yet though. We see profitable apps, but we haven't seen profitable platforms. Most of it is umbrella platforms that utillize community funding and engagement to keep a larger userbase. But it's not a very long-winded approach.
@Andreas There is no evidence that is a real thing. Either the technology wasn't profitable for the big tech company, like XMPP, or big tech uses it in everything, like RSS, but normies just don't like to use it. If Meta join and then close itself into a silo it's the fediverse's fault.
@Andreas The answer is that if it's worth it for Meta to pull out it means the fediverse isn't successfull at the things it needs to be successfull at. Email the closest equivalent which is a success, and it will never make sense for a email provider to pull out, which is what the fediverse needs to achieve.

How is Lemmy going to make money?

I'm happy to have a Lemmy-alternative like Kbin
