@Hypersapien This could make his decision a wonderful backfire
Imagine posting something like:
You can’t block this post, can you? You could if you’d joined [mastodon instance]. [then continue with a few words about mastodon and the instance in question and how to sign up - either as a thread or as a picture slideshow]
Edit: same can be done with Calckey for example, but with no need to promote a special server, since Calckey doesn’t force you to sign to it’s main server through any of the apps iirc
I think we need something like that for twitter and for Reddit. Having something quick and concise with some links where to go is bound to get more bound headed our way
@lohrun sadly I don’t think spez is that stupid to fuck every little thing up from a social network, all at once almost. Sure, I think you can buy some ad space on Reddit, but imo there’s nothing too evident for this to be easy peasy.
Not to mention, Mastodon was already larger than Lemmy when the crisis point happened (the other two contenders, kbin - which is still in beta - and Lotide, are even smaller!). Maybe convincing the sub admins to try to be admins of communities and see how it goes? (Except that there are multiple communities here on the same topic, but on different instances - again, not sure how this is gonna work out)
I won’t lie. As much as i hate Elon. Him buying (and destroying Twitter) is the single greatest thing that has happened for the fediverse and its growth.

I am 100% on board with this.
