Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🤟😁

Wir können in den letzten Monaten einen deutlichen Rückgang der aktiven Nutzenden feststellen. Doch was genau sind die Gründe dafür und was können wir dagegen tun?


Interessanter Artikel. Bin nicht sicher was ich davon halten soll. Hier ist die Statistik auf die der Artikel sich bezieht. Meine Instanz sieht auch einen massiven Ausschlag an neuen Nutzern letzten Februar/März aber auch hier im Threadiverse war es eigentlich immer schwer neue Nutzer zu halten. Wenn es denn tatsächlich auch echte neue Nutzer waren. Wir haben immer wieder diese Ereignisse mit einem Zustrom von Leuten. Aber ansonsten gehen die Statistiken für Lemmy eigentlich regelmäßig bergab. Und das ist auch schon eine ganze Weile so.

Und ich denke ich beobachte auch einen gesellschaftlichen Wandel. Also vielen Leuten ist das was mir wichtig ist zunehmend unwichtiger?! Oder wir haben resigniert? Aber eigentlich wäre doch im Moment ein guter Zeitpunkt um von den Plattformen die schon lange zunehmend kommerzieller und manipulativer werden zu Alternativen zu wechseln, die von Menschen für Menschen geschaffen werden?

Good questions. I'm afraid I don't have good answers to them... I didn't experience a peak either, but that might have happened on Mastodon and I don't really follow that. Or it's some fluke in the data like the lemm.ee thing, I really don't know. Seems a bit early for the lemm.ee diaspora, as far as I remember most people migrated 2-3 months later. But with that said, my own experience doesn't include any major uptake either. It's roughly stayed the same for me. There is some variation with different communities, though. And there might be some overall more engagement with the comments. And there definitely are those quieter phases during summer. (And PieFed has been growing a lot. Which might skew my perspective, because I try to be more active in that part of the Threadiverse.)

The "developer of Mastodon leaving the sinking ship" thing isn't because of translation. That reads the same way in German. I think it's supposed to be a dramatic, sensationalized opener for the article. Certainly a tad much but that seems to be their writing style. They're raising a lot of questions or take a potshot at somebody or something and then move on. I let that slide because the entire article is obviously an opinion piece. And it's supported by anecdotal evidence plus mostly by this one statistic... (And the numbers aren't clear to me either, but that was the reason why I posted this here and wanted to discuss it...)
