I don't think the Fediverse will become mainstream. But I'm actually happy about that. And so should you.

I sadly have to agree... I see that this post has a 2:1 up/down ratio. I was hoping that people with different opinions would speak up more because I would love to hear them

Edit: congrats on publishing your blog! It’s cool that your put yourself out there. Hope you have a good night.

(My comment wasn’t nice, didn’t realize op wrote it and now feel embarrassed)

As you may have seen, that was my first blog post. It would be nice if you actually had something constructive to say. Care to elaborate on why you don't agree?

(Edit: Spelling)

Oh shit. lol no I’ll just edit my comment and not say anything rude

You didn't have to do that. If you feel embarrassed saying something rude, just don't but if you disagree with me, please do tell. I love hearing different perspectives, it makes you grow as a person.

Personally I am sick of reading that the feddiverse is confusing and never going to take off or never going to do this or that. Even if it’s true, which time will tell. It’s like the same article over and over. I thought your blog was just any other random article like “What is the feddiverse? Well it’s this and it’s cool but it’s overhyped”

Maybe those of us who are trying to make Lemmy, mastodon etc happen are too sensitive about it 🤷🏻‍♂️

The Fediverse isn't confusing imo. I don't think it's overhyped at all, either. “Cool” doesn't even begin to describe how awesome all this is. Seeing the numbers go up and up, more people joining, making this a nice place fills my heart with joy. I just don't see it becoming a mainstream thing even though many people probably want it to be mainstream.

I would love to say this post was dead-wrong in a couple of years but only time will tell.
