  I mean it make sense, if you want to preach you gonna have to be in the place where crowd exists, telling people about how good FOSS is in pixelfed doesn’t have the same reach and just preaching to the choir.

    Preaching to an existing crowd makes sense too. So they do not lose confidence and believe. The hardest part isn’t to convert, but to keep them.

      Then maybe the comprise is preaching to both crowds, until the desired platform becomes bigger. Yes, FOSS devs and projects should promote on FOSS services to make them more lively, but they should also acknowledge that many of those who they need to bring over probably are unaware on the main service.

      Either that or just try your best to convince people in real life, although many of us don’t have enough charisma for that…

  If they promoted it on another FOSS platform, nobody would see it.
