@asklemmy What do you think it would take for people to drop Twitter & Reddit and move to the Fediverse?

And how do we get everyone else to do it?

Honestly, most people are followers. If you have a few high profile celebrities publicly announce they are switching over, I'm sure their fan base will do the same. Once the fans go over, then the friends of fans follow and so on.

Yeah, that's probably the best way that people would move across. Knowing people are moving across to Threads, It could be a good way (once they join the Fediverse) for people to get involved with it and maybe move across to things like Mastodon and Lemmy.
