Fediverse

What's the likelyhood a white hat group scrubs reddit and makes all of its content available on an alternative fedi instance, preferably in a non western friendly jurisdiction?

For me I had so much issue actually making an account, I almost gave up. I think it is cool how Lemmy looks, very simple and very direct, but it does need a bit of more user experience.

Is this like all Lemmy everywhere or just a selection of large instances? Does it account for people that host their own instances and come into the larger spaces to interact? I feel like there's context missing before jumping to conclusions.

No search is THE deal breaker for lots.

The process through which we get more users is that something material changes in current Tirefire user's life that puts them over the threshold needed to look for alternative. Then they look. Lemmy is the obvious Reddit alternative, it's well indexed in search engines. Then they try it. If the quality of content is decent, there's a decent chance they stay. They know the quantity won't be as high, that's the major reason they haven't switched to begin with. So for this process to keep functioning, we need to maintain the quality.

Of course we should also suggest Lemmy, but probably when asked or otherwise appropriate. Or else it may have the opposite effect that naked shilling often has.

This is only looking at active users.

If we look at total users and servers across all Fediverse software you can see both are up.

I personally am not interested in making the active user count always go up. The Fediverse maybe better then Silicon Valley, but the health problems being on the internet too much is still there.
