As much as I’d like that to happen, this part of the fediverse is definitely not ready for a mass migration of users. For now, it’s only longtime users and early adopters. The average user probably wouldn’t be okay with downtime, and the average moderator would be woefully underequipped to manage the community.

The beauty of federated social media is that it doesn’t matter which one “wins”. Once bugs are sorted out, Kbin can see Lemmy’s content and Lemmy can see Kbin’s.

Everything here is connected, so it ultimately won’t matter which platform or server you choose. Obviously there are levers for admins to defederate (or, refuse to communicate with) from servers who host illegal content or enable spammers. This is generally a last resort though; most admins believe strongly in keeping everything connected.

@ernest hey sorry to ping you, but could you look into this?

Do dailies on red BL if you hate running into people. Or just learn how to fight. I chose the latter as a PvE player and it’s been a lot more fun.

I think any channel that’s able to get away with crowdfunded monetization like Ko-Fi or Patreon would be able to make the switch comfortably.

People are still using YouTube because it still works for them. Once Google ships something that changes that, folks will start looking for alternatives. Same goes for Owncast and Twitch.

Thanks, sent you a PM.

holy cow, 53 minutes. be right back

Yep, for some reason that one is not working. Not sure why.

All of them can and should co-exist. The whole point of federated social media is that there’s no centralized power. More on that here: https://kbin.social/m/guildwars2/p/437854/Hi-folks-I-m-adding-a-new-rule-under-Allowed-Content

Thank you for posting these by the way; it’s important that folks are aware of other instances.
