Hey! U r dumb and also I'm jorking my peanor

I don't think anyone actually wants the baggage that ecosystem comes with. Like, when it's working well it has baggage. And you wouldn't like it when it doesn't run well.

Let’s be honest, go to any left wing party and you’ll see most people are dating liberals hahaha

UNACCEPTABLE

It's a bit of a faff to export and import your followed community list

I think so as well. Porn is available in abundance. We don't really need it here. What I think could be nice is people who like to write erotic fiction as a hobby and post their original content. Or people discuss erotic computer games. Or like relationship advice and NSFW questions in case some country abolishes sex ed. Maybe talking about piracy, mental issues, loss... all the things that are deemed "not advertiser friendly" on commercial platforms. That'd be something positive. But it's not easy. And it often all gets lumped together under some big NSFW umbrella and 95% of people want to share pron clips anyway. Mostly with zero care for copyright or the creators' consent.

Not a chance unfortunately, bluesky doesn't work without an all-seeing-eye that brings people the content they want. At best there will be some satellites running on atproto, fully decentralized, but the core will still be bluesky and it will still be completely centralized

More instances with minimal/no defederation would help. That way you can just tell people to pick one of those instances and it doesn't matter which one.

Ooh \↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ second all of this. Sex discourse will always be better than just a constant deluge of questionable nudes.

That is probably true, I do wish for a future where people can migrate to say https://www.eurosky.tech and alternatives, while benefiting from having so many users already

i mean maybe. i initially chose one of those instances for mastodon, but it turns out when you don't defederate from anyone, others defederate from you because you act as a proxy for the nazis and pedos to reach other instances. so i couldn't talk to my friends. it's a bit of a hassle.

I find it really simple. I joined a site, I found communities, I posted.

It was honestly no different to using reddit, well without the spam and shitty far right losers.

PieFed has that. I get to the bottom, it loads another page.

I was going to click next anyway, nice to save me the effort and if I want to stop . . . well I just stop scrolling down.

PieFed.zip is very new-user friendly (see very minimal instance block list). I don't see the requirement for an endless barrage of new instances being a blocker - the amount that we have now is sufficient to handle far more capacity than the entire Threadiverse is currently capable of demanding from the servers.

Quite the opposite: most stories I see about people talking about the Threadiverse is how toxic AF we are, and elitist leftists, not welcoming to liberal centrists e.g. in the USA. So if the goal were to bring on more people from Reddit (setting aside for the morning edit: moment whether that is truly a worthwhile aim), then more censorship of toxicity is what would more readily make that happen, not less moderation. e.g. one glance at hexbear and your average Redditor will never come back here again:-P.

Those are irl, whereas the toxic AF perpetually online among us here (e.g. hexbear and Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml) are likely not dating at all.

Is there any new development around this or are you just speculating? All I've seen so far is discussions about age verification for the UK, and most of the conversation was more about finding workarounds than leaving.

What needs to still improve?

The community here is what needs to improve the most. The majority here is hostile to new users and too prone to demand purity tests from everyone who is just thinking about leaving Reddit.

What do you think about https://phtn.app/ ?
Sadly the PieFed support is in Beta for quite a while now, but I do like how clean everything looks. You can also hide away a lot of the complexity but I am not sure if that is the default.
