    Are you pretending that nothing has ever been tried? The Fediverse, that’s what is being done about it. That’s why most of us are here.

    Yes, we are here. But how do we get the rest of the population over? We are still more complicated to use in comparison to centralized networks. That’s why most people are hesitant to join. This and exposure, of course.

    Also, why narrow it down to Reddit and Discord?

    I have heard from many people, and also from many YouTube influencers, that they add “reddit” to the end of their search query. So basically, people use Reddit to search on the internet now because it’s real people, not shitty SEO content.

    Fucking hell, Forums also still exist, they just aren’t getting activity

    True. But forums don’t get the activity they deserve because of centralized networks that take it from them.

    Let’s change that! What can we do to strengthen and grow the Fediverse?

      Excuse me what? Since when since Jun 2024 does Reddit actually have real people?

        I haven’t had that many problems with bots on Reddit.
