Many sites I visit are not because I like the design of the site, but that I like the content that the users it has attracted have uploaded. Sure, there’s YouTube alternatives, but they’re not a replacement for the scale of YouTube. There’s still a few subreddits I read because they don’t have a good lemmy alternative.
Oh no, my local community events aren’t announced on Lemmy, therefore I should just never interact with people in my town and spend more time browsing lemmy.
If you only allow all or nothing adopters, you’re going to end up with nothing.
that will likely not happen, FOSS tools will still respect you as a sovereign individual

I have no idea what point you’re trying to make, as it doesn’t pertain to the discussion that’s going on.
