Comment on When Windows users find the Threadiverse

  If the fediverse is shedding users, it’s because we still haven’t figured out a better way to explain federation other than “it’s like email”, the process of choosing an instance is vague and daunting, the process of moving to a new instance is vague and daunting, and people instance-police incessantly, creating a feeling that you have to choose the correct instance. That, plus the pervasive misogyny that rears its ugly head every once in a while.

  I promise you though, people being “unwelcoming” by using silly terms is not why the fediverse is shedding users.

    Was curious so I pulled graphs from fedecan. It looks like the fediverse isn’t getting many new users per day (possibly because the first rule of Reddit Club is “ban anyone who talks about lemmy”), but active users appears to be mostly steady (with a slight downwards trend).

    That’s a really weird thing for a progressive space.

    If only I was a woman, I’d fuck those motherfuckers straight out of inceldom.

      It’s not that weird for a space where the vast majority are men, unfortunately

  If that “word” makes you mad, I have words that would harm like doodyhead and fartknocker too!
