For those who were skeptics about the fediverse: what made you change your mind?

I have always been open to trying new technologies, so fediverse and by extension Lemmy / Kbin, made sense to me as a suitable alternative to Reddit with huge potential.

My fears are mostly centered around people rallying to competing platforms - squabbles / 4chan etc. and as a result diluting the knowledge in utility based spaces (read: sub-reddits) like /r/programming, /r/chess etc.

I am glad that platforms such as Reddit / Twitter continue to alienate their user base, which is pushing the people off these platforms.

I am also surprised at the speed with which developers have pushed apps for Lemmy / Squabbles, which would also increase adoption.

I am browsing with wefwef.app and it has honestly made it all so integrated and smooth that I don’t think in a couple of months there would be any reason to go back to Reddit.

You reached the end
