Life is always preparing for the next cataclysm but fediverse is preparing for corporations hemorrhaging users. I keep looing at numbers and different sources show that there’s a peak in MAU when Elon buys twitter, but then slowly falls over time. I’m curious if anyone has noticed a drop off, or if the peak had some crazy amount of posts and comments?
side note: I’m trying to help build up the fediverse streamer community get the people that want to watch streamer with people that want to watch streamer, but I have only noticed minor improvements. like streamers are connecting with other streamers, and one account has said that they got a boost. nothing to suggest that new members have joined from outside the fediverse streamer.
I disagree. I tried to cross post to the silos for 11 years https://jeena.net/notes/1 and I couldn’t move anyone to an alternative platform. Cross posting only legitimizes the other platform and gives them free content to exploit.
Idk how you exploit content. It’s ussually the creators that get exploited. The idea is you put the content out there and put an impression on people so eventually they start thinking about them think about comming to Lemmy. I got nothing if you don’t want to support x or twitter by crossposting from Lemmy.
I still say Lemmy/fediverse needs to build more niches community’s up more than it needs to market so that way people stick around or engage more, so people don’t drop off the platform from boredom
