@noelreports I think most people are like moths to a flame. This site here is not the flame. It's the oxygen.
Growth is not the goal on some social media sites.
Having a set of people you actually want to interact with is a better goal, even if it stays low-growth.
@noelreports probably #threads and #Bluesky are in more of a growth mode. #mastodon is a great platform better than the others, there’s just not enough high profile newsies etc. I like the vibe here better but need to be a bit more plugged in.
@LaureM@noelreports#Bluesky is absolutely not in growth mode, it has recently been falling below 400k daily active and the trend of decline has been visible for months. It did briefly grab attention as the most hyped alternative but it is starting to look a lot like that is already fading.
there are some reasons to be optimistic for #Mastodon's future since it isn't just a single isolated platform and the #fediverse has welcomed the first small steps of #threads integration recently, #wordpress introduced their ActivityPub integration, #Flipboard launched their integration etc. but it is definitely experiencing a period of slower growth currently.
Overall it seems like there is no single place the #twittermigration consistently goes towards and that results in a more fragmented social media landscape but ActivityPub does promise to unify some of them.
@noelreports Left twitter because Musk has very weird way to run his business. Decided to follow you on this platform. I have no problem if you decide to switch platforms, just please keep posting somewhere else although:). I really appreciate it your job
@noelreports I like the platform, but unfortunately it seems now that everything's gravitating towards Bluesky.
At least that's better than the toxic cesspool Twitter hat become since the idiot bought it.
