  Pixelfed has 112k monthly active users, 89k being on a single instance

  • pixelfed.fediverse.observer/list
  • pixelfed.fediverse.observer/dailystats

  Does this make Pixelfed centralized ?

  Where does Bluesky intervene in that sign up and usage process?

    How many whatabboutisms do you have to do each day per account to earn your btc?

    There is hard evidence that BlueSky’s users are centralized on a single instance: arewedecentralizedyet.online

    There is hard evidence that the word “centralized” means “cluster around a center”: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/centralize

    There is hard evidence that bluesky is for profit company: bsky.social/about/blog/2-7-2022-overview

    Bluesky is centralized and for profit.

      I do not earn BTC talking about AT Proto.

      I mod !fedigrow@lemmy.zip and !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com , and try to make the ActivityPub platform grow and better known.

      Qualifying someone as being paid by Bluesky when talking about non-Bluesky managed AT Proto platforms such as deer.social or Blacksky doesn’t appear as good faith for conversations.

        It was actually sorta funny to see an accusation against a fediverse member I know well enough from posts to roll my eyes at. I think I had someone call me a tankie the other day not that long after I had an interminable argument with a workers owning the means of production level socialist.
