Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

Depends on how many you follow. Lemmy is way more dead than Mastodon for me.

Mumble + Element (Matrix)

I'm running my own instance, and typically post my stuff on mastodon, so I guess I have made the first step?
It's a bit of a Catch-22 I suppose ... low numbers of viewers makes it less attractive for creators, and fewer interesting creators make it less attractive for viewers.
Taking into account the other aspects that make it less attractive for viewers (fragmentation and inconvenience ... having to dig through "Find the right instance for you" tutorials, no matter how well curated, can be a bit of a turn-off compared to just going to a central point and find what you're looking for), I don't have that much hope that it'll reach a critical mass of both viewers and creators to catapult Peertube into large-scale relevance ... as sad as I am about saying that.

I’m having more trouble dropping Facebook messenger.
Pretty much everything “real life social” is organized through that. While I haven’t posted anything on Facebook for years, news from my local community, kids after school activities, birthday parties, etc are all organized through that.
-
Cool. What’s your instance?
And yes, it is a catch-22 or a “chicken before the egg” issue, but I’m confident we will see even more content creators on PeerTube in the future.

So far it's been a wildly better experience

Rednote doesn't have ads

Yeah, and the comment was made in the context of the post so maybe don't ignore it.

Things I've learned: the people in this community hate bluesky on principle, their principles are insular and toxic, and they can't read.
This is why people aren't going to mastadon more than Bluesky; because y'all're insufferable. I made the comment in context of the post, so why would you ignore it?

Fediverse is about federation. It’s not Activityverse. So yeah, email, Usenet, IRC, XMPP, Matrix… all Fediverse, all an antidote to corporate walled gardens.
-
I get that, its basically just going back to the model we had before with Teamspeak/Mumble/Ventrilo where the image is meant to be specifically about Federated alternatives/
-
That’s your preference and there’s nothing wrong with it. Doesn’t make Signal a Fediverse alternative. Matrix fits that use case.
I prefer my messaging to be federated for the same reason I don’t want my other services depending on the benevolence of a single actor. But that’s me.
-
I'm just saying that there's deficiencies in those other networks. Just that they are different networks.
Now if an xmpp user can directly message or communicate with a Mastodon user... then they'd be both part of the "fediverse".

I am a Lemmy user, can I message a Pixelfed user? All other AP users? Signal users?
