People still trust Meta /Facebook how do we convince those people ?

@zleap @aral Many have tried. I thin to them, convenience and social connections matter more than ethics or morality.

This is the issue, connections. Person A is connected to BCD and BCD are connected to eachother and A, so unless everyone moves, everyone loses that connection.

People also follow groups, and specific companies or services which would also have to exist here.

@zleap @aral Yes, all true. And the convenience of that matters more than ethics/morals, as I said. That doesn't speak well of humans in general.

If I find interesting links or content on here, I will share on my blog, e.g a link to a paper or article, I will say in my blog post it was posted to fediverse. A small thing but will hopefully also help highlight we do have interesting things going on here.

Eventually there may be a big pull. I still argue we need to be ready for the next big main stream scandle, and jump on it, to promote fedi, Not that the reinstatement of Alex Jones got that much attention, As I think the media want to avoid giving Alex Jones more attention.

@zleap @aral You make valid points: every attempt to draw attention to the fediverse, if helpful. :-) So, well done!

Overall I am hopeful, or I wouldn't be here.
