Point being, all of us that are here are the ones cool enough to come here. We are unified by the desire for a better social media that is not-for-profit and user driven. And that makes this community unique compared to the scabs advocating for Reddit. The people who will belong here will come here. :)

True. But I have to say that it did take me some time to warm up to the fedi concept. I don't think it's bad to drop the idea on people. For many people it takes several times of hearing something to get it.

I will say that even in my minor looks back over at Reddit now, even in subs that were not hotbeds of anti-Reddit activity, the posting quality has dropped dramatically. It feels like there's some quiet quitting going on to me. And at some point those folks will look for an outlet, or a source of news, or something. So being ready for them is good.

I am one of the quiet quitters. I go to reddit considerably less often than before. It is kind of a silent protest - although I miss one or two subreddits.

I am not sure I grok the fediverse concept already enough to feel at home. Microblog, magazines etc. But we'll get there eventually.
