The Fediverse is growing and we have decently successful platforms like Lemmy and Mastodon. What else would you like to see?

Any big tech platform not yet replaced or maybe something new altogether? What are we missing?

    More non-English communities.

    The Fediverse it’s pretty English-centric and there are very few communities of non-English speakers, even huge languages like Spanish with hundreds of millions of people.

        I think that’s largely due to the lack of variety in our clientele.

        It seems to be hard to get anyone from the non-geek community over here. My wife isn’t interested at all if it doesn’t have an algorithm. She wants the tech to spoon-feed her things she’ll like instead of finding communities. Threads, Bluesky, Tiktok, Instagram just have all the people because it’s what the masses crave.

      I agree with this. Outside of German, I’ve found it very difficult to find communities in other languages. I couldn’t tell whether those communities didn’t exist at all or whether they were simply not discoverable.
