Not hoping for a miracle, but it'd be nice if some Japanese users followed him, even if only as a secondary account.
I believe Japan is the nation with the second most twitter users, so any chip at that foundation helps.
That, and I'd like to see more touhou artists venture beyond twitter.
P.S. couldn't find info wrt him and Mastodon, so nothing new, I guess.
Just for the record, I know little about gotosocial, but I've looked into Misskey a fair bit and I think it's irrelevant here.
FediDB data on active users seems off (a low ~12k MAU), but even if the real number is much greater, most are on the flagship instance (misskey.io) which has multiple CSAM censures on fediseer.
Put another way, it's almost counterproductive to include Misskey in these topics because simply federating with its biggest instance could be a liability for most 1st world western instances.
I doubt the Swiss government would get much out of Misskey.
I looked around, but was unable to find more about this. Until something new comes up, I'm assuming it's just a rumor.
Are you talking about Dorsey? Because if so, he left Bluesky as he didn't like their focus on moderation.
Not that it matters much, I sincerely doubt most users look up such details before joining anything. It's all about the experience.
Yet, Bluesky didn't even support video posts until two weeks ago. Many other highly requested features are still missing. To what extent does the success of each platform come down to money? What did Bluesky do with a larger budget to get an edge?
That's inaccurate and reductive. ATproto and ActivityPub do not federate the same way, and how they work greatly affects how users interact with the entire ecosystem.
On Mastodon, pick the wrong instance and there's content you'll never see, migration isn't complete, discovery is so bad they started a new initiative to try fixing it, instances have their own cultures, and so on.
Bluesky has issues, some I'd consider critical, but they're not directly user-facing for the most part. Make an account, you get the same experience as everyone else.
edit: Sorry, I have this issue where I try to be concise, yet feel like I end up being rude. I get your confusion, but they're quite different. Hopefully this helped; I can elaborate if you want.
I think one of the biggest reasons is that the Fediverse is often a pain to get into and sometimes a pain to use.
Bluesky and Threads "just work."
Some people say it's marketing and in Threads' case I can believe it, but I haven't seen any example of large marketing campaign by Bluesky.
Unironically would probably incentivize me to exercise more often.
P.S. glad you're having fun and being healthy with Miku
No, I'm trying to reduce the influence of a problematic individual. The lawsuit has, and will have, more coverage.
I didn't want to rain on your parade, but:
Even putting aside technical details, I fail to see how "Lemmy integration in the browser" could be a good product strategy. A plugin/extension can also be developed by independent developers, which seems much more fitting for the size of the target demographic. Maybe I'm missing something.
I'm sorry, banana, that was sarcasm. I saw nothing I'd call a quality.
I don't know who this person is, but adding "Hacker News" doesn't give their words more credibility. It gives them less, if anything.
Imagine I quoted someone and, underneath it, added:
Both of these enjoy the same level of base, intrinsic trust to me: none.
