Lemmy.world may be quickly becoming the relative centre of the #threadiverse
Growing fast, communities gaining more traction than counterparts on lemmy.ml and probably has the momentum of being new ground for everyone.
See, eg @ruud scaling the server up to the same specs as mastodon.world: https://lemmy.world/post/75556
There’s probably a good amount of scope for experienced mastodon admins to run parallel #lemmy/#kbin servers. #Hachyderm are thinking about it AFAIK.
@maegul @ruud @fediverse @fediversenews that’s good, the devs never wanted it to be big or the main instance.
@Geniusak @ruud @fediverse @fediversenews
Oh, absolutely, something that they really deserve credit on TBH, compared to what’s going on over here with mastodon.social.
AFAICT, they’ve been friendly with #kbin too … it looks like they’re sharing this growth, which is nice for the same reasons.
Imagine if #akkoma and #mastodon shared the twitter migration.
Goddamn communists!
@maegul @ruud @fediverse @fediversenews why, what happened between akkoma and masto?
@Geniusak @ruud @fediverse @fediversenews
Nothing happened, AFAIK. It’s just that mastodon dominates amongst the microblogging. For many, mastodon is the replacement for twitter.
If, somehow, the twitter migration were distributed more evenly between mastodon and akkoma, I think we’d have a different fediverse. More awareness and appreciation of platform and feature diversity and quality inter-operation, I’d guess.
@maegul @Geniusak @ruud @fediverse @fediversenews the akkoma instances are tiny compared to the mastodon ones. The largest has 1668 users which suggests that it is targeted at self hosting and so had no real interest in taking on folks that just wanted a home from the twitter migration. pleroma has bigger instances but those are generally on mastodon restricted instance lists 😃
