Its great that it's secure and open source etc but do the people who come up with all of these new social networks understand the onboarding cost?
I love Linux and open source, but there's no point using something like this unless my friends and family are too. They won't log in just to see one person's posts. They barely understand Facebook as it is, they're not going to learn a new app.
If it's something like Twitter where the point is to follow and share with strangers then maybe, but you're asking way too much of your users if you expect them to migrate their entire family and friend groups onto the twentieth competing social platform when there's already several apps that they've signed up for / gotten used to / invested time in / posted to.
Not even Google could compete with FB.
