Compared against the predominant incumbent social media platforms, the fediverse is very small.
information sources:
An elite 1.5 million.
As always, you guys are way too fixated on size.
There’s no way reddit has more “real” users than Twitter // X. Maybe with bots but half the shit on reddit is a Twitter screen cap or repost.
That’s a strange read on Reddit. I’ve heard people say this before, and it’s baffling.
Reddit is, and always has been, a link aggregator first and foremost. Of course it’s reposts and screenshots of others sites. That’s kind of the point. To bring you Twitter so you don’t have to actually be on twitter.
Fuck Spez… amirite ? Guys?
So Facebook is:
Boring Full of bots Soulless
An we are:
Real people mostly Engaged A cute little dot!
Like someone said, 1,5M people are enough for me, specially if they are mostly active and it seems they are. Are they stats for mean user activity?
Why this many people use Snapchat is incomprehensible
There are so many good messenger apps and all of them, Snapchat’s giant userbase remains
I use it for the same reason I use anything, the people I talk with are there. I already drew a hard line in the sand with some devices and Windows.
Snapchat is a line I drew. It’s probably my single least favourite messaging option
Honestly, I prefer it over a few of the others. That doesn’t make it good though. I’d much prefer to get everyone I know on to something more open and free like Matrix, wire, etc.
