  • and get fuck all as any for of reaction whatsoever

    I mean yeah, why would anyone see your posts. I doubt people look at the “new” live feed much on mastodon. I dont have an account, but as far as i can see there are zero sorting features like on lemmy. There is only the live feed and a couple “Explore” filters that are not configurable.

    So yeah nobody will see your posts unless you already have followers… Thats just how microblogging works by default. On lemmy people will just automatically see your posts if its posted into a community with a bunch of subscribers.


  • at least a setting stone for people to be in a slightly better place than Faceook or Twitter?

    No, not really. It has already started caving to Turkish political censorship requests for example. They are implementing checkmark bullshit and from the start they required you to have an account to view all content.

    but people are learning about alternatives like us

    99% of bluesky users have never heard of the fediverse or anything like that. They just blindly follow the herd to the next platform like always. In a few years bluesky will turn to complete shit and then they will once again jump to the next garbage platform.



  • While the Fediverse has traditionally been the network most commonly referred to and used as an example regarding the subject of decentralized social networks, alternatives to it and the accompanying ActivityPub have been developed and deployed. A major protocol in competition with the Fediverse is the AT Protocol, which powers the Bluesky social network and has formed its own separate network dubbed by developers as the Atmosphere

    So no it is not. Basically Fediverse = activitypub
    Bluesky doesnt even properly federate with instance using their own protocol so its not even in any way comparable to the fediverse.
