2025 is also the year of Piefed. :)
The year of PielemmbinBB
The entire fedi is going up with new users. We keep having wins.
Kinda easy when traditional keeps hitting itself over and over.
I suspect the fediverse is stickier than mainstream social media, since there’s no incentive to be anti-consumer, and anyone can make their own frontend.
It’s only a matter of time until these companies keep making unforced errors and people join us.
The thing is no one is actually forced to use their websites, we can all leave at any time when it's no longer worth it. This means that we have all the power since those websites are nothing without their users and the content they post. You are also right that the diversity and quality of software offerings can only go up and we see this happen even with rather low user numbers. Imagine what the world could look like when corporations are unwelcome nuisances
Year of the Verse
Nice word, i tried to find a similar word to microblogging (masto/IceShrimp) Sadly, threads was already taken, and i do want to promote Meta.
So, Verse as competitive, verse as poem, verse as conversation...i think it fit lemmy/mbin/nodeBB/piefed perfectly :)
