It's beehaw news no?
Post content is one way I guess. Doesn’t help the administration. But it keeps the community lively.
Let it die. Things will die. Old members will get butthurt. New things will rise. This is the way of change. "Fragmented in 1000s of bubbles" is what the Fedverse is anyway from what I understand. Some of y'all are thinking to Reddit-y.
Ok. But how long can it last then? We need a big community where you can attract everyone. It's good that there are allot of different bubbles too. But we also need a few huges ones willing too do the heavy lifting so there is some real content which attracts everyday readers and content creators.
You don’t need a few big bubbles(instances.)
What you need is a well organized search database of communities that belong to thousands of different instances (and need a more streamlined way of subscribing to these communities from each instance).
Since any instance can essentially connect to another (unless blocked by administrators), you can have tons of these instances distributing the traffic evenly so nobody is bogged down and still access so of the communities across the fediverse.
Why?
@Stijn I'm not too familiar with the whole magazines/community situation but I can give the pointers on what works on the Rebased/Pleroma/Mastodon/Akkoma side of software on the Fedi:
Fediverse works best when everyone uses their own instance. Obviously impossible, since you need to be at least a bit technically savvy and maybe shell out a few bucks a month at most. So a lot of smaller instances is better than one big one - That's the name of the game.
Ok but content wise we need the power of the number. Reddit has an immense user base. So there's an immense community where you ask literally anything. I dont mind paying at all. I pay for allot of services that i like. I donate money to opensourcesoftware etc. I am building my own lemmy instance to help to help the community. But since the problem for beehaw is the modding part of bad actors/trolls/spammers. There must be something a man can do to help :) I like it here. Kinda more than I liked reddit. Because it is up my favorite alley. Open and coming from the community.
@Stijn Sign up to be a mod or something and do it for free. I guess that helps as well.
I will do that.
