(lemmy.zip) submitted 4 months ago by nerdspice@lemmy.zip to c/fediverse@lemmy.world 131 comments fedilink hide all child comments 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?

They tend to be milquetoast parrots and regurgitators who think they are so clever "observing" a take that has been so well worn it's its own ship of theseus three times over at this point.

If someone wants to post on Peertube, they basically either have to have the time, funding, and know-how to self-host, or arrive with an established audience. Someone with great creative talent does not necessarily want to run an expensive and complicated software project. Someone who has an established audience has very little incentive to jump to federation. PeerTube is improving slowly. There are now a few instances with open registration, which could mean more fertile ground for good content.
