I wish I could just like skip ahead to where the fediverse is huge. Like where every post has lots of discussion and comments and each community has lots of posts and engagement. I know it will take time and the growth won’t happen overnight though
I just hope a lot of the bigger instances can do something to withstand the massive hit they're going to take from the user influx. I've heard some users have to wait ages to post on them, then you have folks like me on our own instances not able to see swathes of comments because federation is backed up.
I really like this platform, but those issues will turn a lot of people off.
Yeah I mean it’s pretty much right where it needs to be to get there.. but I think the lurkers should start speaking their minds a little and we all will have more content. After a few years hopefully there will be a trove of content for all sorts of subjects in the fediverse (and that we can search for the fediverse content easily)
I've always been a lurker, but I'm finding it more easier to get involved here. Probably because it's all new and I don't think I'm going to get trolled for having a say.
Heard a lot of lurkers say the same, we're finally happy to participate again lol.
If we create a post with the title "the frontpage of the internet" and upvoted all we can, would it appear on google results when people search for it? Used to work for reddit (or is just a meme and doesn't work at all, I don't know).
I don’t really care either way, but I’m getting sick of people conflating Lemmy with the Fediverse. You’re not on Lemmy, you’re on various different platforms and communities, you don’t own it all, it’s not all Lemmy.
