A few observations

  • interface is cleaner than Reddit (some people will probably complain about the space wasted, even in "compact" mode, but most users should be fine)
  • there is only a handful of communities existing at the moment, and no option to create more. See picture for the list.
  • feature-wise, it looks very similar to Reddit/Lemmy/Piefed: upvotes/downvotes, comments, sort types

Based on what happened with Twitter, Bluesky and Mastodon, we can probably imagine that Digg might be a new actor that quite a few people will join, when the people the most aware of enshittification of corporate platforms will stay on Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed

Random thought: maybe a "lifestyle" community could be a way to encompass a few communities that struggle to stay active

Good point about Musk, let's see how it goes

  • Also it should be pointed out that Bsky has ~10 million MAU while Twitter still has ~350 million, so the exodus wasn’t even that large.

Network effect is at play, but still impressive compared to Mastodon numbers
