Sorry, I stopped playing factorio on my work Linux computer. I will play next month to get us back up.
Studies find that the vast majority of users on a platform are passive participants, the vast majority only look, a smaller group looks and comments and finally an even smaller group looks, comment and post. The key to growing any community is to find or be an active poster. It’s also an investment, if you post and get only 1 to 2 reactions, that’s okay, it takes time. It also means that more people see it and didn’t react.
In your example the NBA sub, I am on it and comment from time to time, but don’t have the sources or time to post, but if someone took, at least, the links from reddit and posted them here, it’s a start. I know NBA reddit has a lot of good discussions which you can’t replicate here without more people, but the posting of articles and links is a start.
I look forward to meeting 45 year old male Linux nerd and 23 year old femboy Linux nerds.
Honestly. I suspect they hold back the best matches even if you do pay for a subscription, so you continue to do so.
Discord isn’t really applicable to the fediverse but that doesn’t means that FOSS can’t benefit. Are there good alternatives.
When I left reddit, I thought I left comments like this behind.
I run an owncast server. It was easy to set up, easy to stream to. Highly recommend. Also you can subscribe to it via mastodon to get go live updates.
I would recommend waterfox. I use it on windows, it doesn’t run great on Linux so far so on my Linux machines I use Firefox.
I don’t want it to be mainstream. I like my small communities full of weirdos.
Monthly active users are an important metric for companies trying to sell advertising. It’s less important for a community based application where profits are irrelevant. What is more important is how valuable the content is to you, and if it’s not, you can put in an effort to provide content you, and others, find valuable.
Most of the people I followed on Twitter. Unfortunately.
No, can we stop striving for constant growth like some bullremoved capitalism company and work to make the content and engagement here worth coming for. Growth isn’t everything.
Modern capitalism has made us overly concerned with anything other than constant and rapid growth. This does not concern me.
It’s fine.
Absolutely, I think people are still thinking in the mindset of web 2.0. The fediverse is the internet before capitalism ruined it.
