I mean have they seen how good Ice Cubes and Mlem look? How can they choose the default Twitter and Reddit apps over those masterpieces.

MODERATORS
No, they haven't. 99% of people have never heard of the fediverse or any app within it.
People here are so out of touch here; it's super interesting
In a way, it's a good sign. The threadiverse is tight-knit and comprehensive enough to become people's primary social site. I've never seen any other reddit alternative get to this point.
It became my primary. Had never heard/understood federated-internet anything before lemmy. And it's been a really good time here
Reddit is now just a Quora for me, when I'm using a search engine. I don't scroll Instagram, but just look at what (3) people send me. Facebook is for rare use-cases, so I haven't deleted my account. YouTube I watch, rarely scroll, and don't interact. And I think that's about it currently
Lemmy has it's own issues/flavor for sure... but I dig it. I learned my first forum basics from Something Awful, and there's a certain vibe here that reminds me of that. The fediverse (threadiverse? I haven't heard that term) feels like an internet community center or something
threadiverse is for threaded apps like lemmy and kbin, as in practice they're mainly a seperate network from things like mastodon.
Discuit still has less than 200 weekly commenters: https://discuit.net/DiscuitMeta/post/HCHvcmBc
Lemmy has 42000 monthly active users
That explains why I recognize people all the time. We’re basically a small city
What is the standard for counting the active user? As a lurker, I don't think I would be counted.
Voting, commenting or posting. With this comment, you're active.
Dang, those numbers are moving though. Not bad.
I don't think so, just activists who like to complain about not enough people being aware of the alternative.
Im not complaining personally. I think its all interesting. We have the technically and non technically inclined in different media spheres with different exposure. Sometimes its funny or entertaining but its always interesting no matter what seeing how there are effectively two different worlds and many are really mostly only aware of one or the other it seems.
I told everyone in my family, and it was one ear and out the other.
My sister told me the other day, "I didn't know I could add reddit it to my Google search and get better results." All I could think is, "you figured that out right when everything went to shit, damn."
Even if Reddit is way worse now, it is still very useful for specific topics. For example how to make soap, reddit is very useful in that regard. Though it is still funny when a clearly fake story gets alot of attraction https://www.reddit.com/r/AITAH/comments/1hz1y5y.
Lmao thanks for sharing this.
