I just started the use the fediverse to get away from Meta (I have a somewhat active Instagram) and Reddit.

Now unfortunately my userbase is going to threads without knowing what it even is. I'm trying to spread awareness about the fediverse but it's like yelling into the void. I signed up for threads and will continue to try to post content about the fediverse, but I also have to have an audience to share my art to as I'm trying to build some interest for a game I'm making.

This really sucks. I feel extremely upset about this whole meta thing. I could continue to try to build from scratch, but I am hoping to release the game next year and I already have 3 years head start on Instagram, it feels bad to also just abandon what I've worked hard on.

I dunno, I'm just venting. I hate Meta. I don't even have a actual Facebook account. Hell I didn't know Facebook owned Instagram until a year in.

I'll just try to continue to stay active on my fediverse accounts. And try to promote the fediverse on the centralized BS networks.

Hey man don't overthink it. You need a meta product for work or for a project, just use it professionally. You need to think about your own success and go where your audience is.

Now on your personal time if you don't want the toxicity of those places come to the fediverse and let's have a nice chat.

I think the goal of the fediverse is not to eat the world but on the contrary to give us alternatives so we can compartmentalize our internet life.

Thank you so much, seeing the whole threads thing ruined my day yesterday night and this morning. I felt like a sense of hopelessness for the future of decentralized platforms.

You're right, I can continue to use both for different purposes.

Thank you so much. Seriously!

Oh man happy to help! And good luck on your game project, drop us a link sometime!

hey dude it's been ruining my night/morning too. you're not alone at least
