I’m genuinely interested in people thoughts about the Fediverse because here in the UK it has massively stalled in 2025, like a lot of things. I am seeing way less posts from UK people and way less interaction and general use in fact. Most seem to have stopped social media use to be fair, and I know a lot of that is to do with my age (old fart here, 56 laps round sun and counting) but the numbers game look poor from my point of view. Do we think the Fediverse has a future now after useage appears to be going downwards? Is it a UK thing? (well I know the UK is weird but hey)
I just wish there wasn’t so much sectarianism on fedi. Or maybe it’s a good thing that this kind of social dynamic is possible in online world. I don’t really know. What I do know is that it’s rather annoying to see the instance admin being labeled as reactionary because someone dug up something from five years ago and decided to start a FUD campaing.
Haven’t seen anything like that myself, which instance admin are you referring to?
emacs.ch ended like that and fosstodon also had it’s fair share
Ah, not lemmy, you’re talking about the rest of the fediverse. Gotcha
