Yeah, 90% of my mastodon feed is “isn’t mastodon great?” “My self hosted foss app is…” “Did I mention how great Linux is?” “[Long winded rant about Internet privacy]”
I’m all for privacy and I can definitely get lost in those topics too, those guys just have to realize that 90% of people don’t really care, even if I wish it was different. If you really want to become a big player, you need to provide an easy to understand UI, the features people are already used to and as little of an entry barrier as possible. Or you build up on an already existing user base like FB with threads, but I’m kinda happy that one’s still not available in the EU haha
