Comment on The Fediverse is Not The Future of The Internet.

A small reminder that clickbaity titles like this work against the author’s view for all the people who read just the title and scroll further. (And they’re not to blame. You can’t read everything)
TL;DR of the article:
Fall of Twitter and Reddit helped the Fediverse grow. Most users don’t know or care how Federation works and don’t realise the necessity of donations. Fediverse either remains niche or becomes mainstream, the future is not set in stone.

That is a fair point, I’ll keep that in mind going forward, thank you

Regarding voting, of course, it should be done after familiarizing oneself with the post to some degree greater than the title.
I meant changing people’s minds. While just the title won’t convince people to think a certain way, it will remain in their minds as one of many opinions on the topic they encountered. And it’s a shame if that opinion is the opposite of what the author has in mind.

That’s true, I’ll keep it in mind :)
