psst hey kids. wanna try out some fediverse?
They use social media in hopes of becoming influencers themselves to get the bag, or follow big influencers because they have a huge emotional attachment to them.
I don't think fediverse is going to have appeal because they aren't in it just to have a site to have conversations or see material.
The very foundation of it having to be where the most visible and popular people are is the whole draw of social media for them. Not pseudoanonynous usernames posting comments.
Let them form their video version while we keep our text and I'll have one less shit to flip
Don't we have that?
fuck if i know i'm a texto
Pixelfed I think? Though it's developed by the same guy as whatever the Instagram clone is called so it's been kind of slow to become usable?
