I modified a image I saw going around last year on Global Switch Day

Perhaps we could use it to make people aware of Reddit alternatives etc. If you can imporve upon the image please do so, and feel free to use it.
I just threw it together in KolourPaint in a few min.
On this one, I agree with them. Network effects do not go well with splittism. And yet it’s hardly surprising we’re here given the ills of contemporary society: narcissism, snowflakery, identitarianism, intolerance for contradiction. For every subject there must be ten separate communities (AKA echo chambers, bubbles) so that nobody has to see anything that they might disagree with.
I’m caricaturing, of course. But this issue is real. Given the political orientation here, it probably affects the fediverse more than corporate social media. And whatever the wrongs and rights of the subject, it is not helping the cause of attracting newcomers.
On Piefed you get the most active communities in search (using similar metrics/ranking systems as reddit), it makes a lot more sense than on Lemmy which ranks search by sub numbers as opposed to MAU/WAU (so you get a lot of dead communities as #1 on the Lemmy WebUI).
If you sort by ‘Top Month’ Lemmy will rank it by MAUs.
Not if you do a search for a specific topic/keyword.
You can’t sort the table of results by column and the “sort type” dropdown doesn’t function cleanly.
Although this might be tied the darkly-compact theme I am using.
Useful to know.
