I think the idea of federated social media itself would have made fediverse sky rocket itself. bloggers tooters and video creators or any kind of internet user can connect with eachother here. but that hasn’t happened. not at least yet. so why?
what are the problems. or what things are missing on the fediverse that makes it still so unpopular?
I am on friendica and lemmy, and honestly reddit and facebook still have a better featureset (with lemmy providing stronger competition then friendica), And if the feature set is not better why not just use what is the bigger option with more content?
Also I think it would be interesting to do some user research, going to some high quality content creators and asking what would they want from a platform .

facebook’s good features; intregrated chat, groups, communities. sometimes It’s free to use facebook with your sim data plan. alot of old nostalgic online games like pet society.
reddit good features; I really like the dark mystery and investigation stuff, can’t be found anywhere else than on reddit.
the spooky features of both; data-selling. spying. ads. lizard people and cringe memes. for reddit that it’s basically an education camp where people are slowly “nudged” to behave a certain way. or in other words, a rat box.
