Not sure I agree with all of his points, but it's a start that we're at least publicly acknowledging this as the end of an era (for good IMO)

Didn’t they say they were bullish on fediverse long term?

[–] TrippyFocus@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Yeah it was the one platform they were optimistic about.

Think they were right on the short term issues but we’re already starting to see apps developed and make the signup easier for less tech savvy people so I think we’ll see more and more come.

Also helps that Twitter and Reddit did their changes around the same time so more people are willing to move since others are as well.

Fediverse can win. But, it has to be dead simple to use. It has to be smooth. It has to be easy to grok. Literally, nothing else matters when talking about user adoption. My belief.
