Can we all stop the in-fighting for a minute and realise how awesome the platform we are on is?

We are forming communities on the realized image of the internet that we were told we would have back in the 80s and 90s.

You can make your own home on the web and have your own niche community, not owned by any corporation, while still being connected to the wider internet.

This feels like something out of a sci-fi movie.

    I keep telling my wife how awesome the Fediverse is. She doesn’t share the same sentiment I do, but she also doesn’t care about Reddit. I’ll win her over one day.

      My wife just downloaded the official reddit app after using Apollo since AlienBlue got removed. She has done nothing but complain since downloading it. I imagine that July 1st she will start looking for alternatives.

      we just need to find her brand of community and have you show her a few posts a day. Whats she into - succulents? scary stories? funny videos? CATS?
