The Fedipact statistics are interesting
7% of active users committed to #fedipact - https://fedidb.org/current-events/anti-meta-fedi-pact
* How representative of the user base is this, or are admins gatekeeping here? A large survey would be good to clear that up.
* EG, Mastodon, relative to its userbase, seems the most “Meta friendly” with only 57% of fedipact users (but ~80% all users)
* Fractal of niche-dom? Fedi ~1% of social media, fedi-pact ~ 10% of fedi. So anti-meta-fediverse ~0.1%?
To me, the difference is that the power isn’t in their hands now, even with federation. If they don’t act on something that should be acted on, we can still act on it, even if only for our own instance.
I agree. You can act then. But your place will be fundamentally different from what it was.
