Yeah, i've had a similar experience. Even with those friends running their own servers seem to have a lack of awareness. Considering the strength of the Linux and Foss communities here i'm surprised more information hasn't crossed over into other forums.
Is it just because we stop using the commercial platforms when we switch to fedi? I assumed most people were dual users though
I guess most people are. I am to a degree, but only with family private message chats. That network effect is like cement. So theres not much chance for someone like me to talk about the fediverse on other aocial media. Maybe this experience is common. I think there was a post asking about this the other day that gor pretty high up the 'All' feed.
