The unicorn is the Org Mode logo, for those unaware.

4 panel meme. First panel: Two people arguing the first, with the ActivityPub logo overlaid, says "I'm decentralising social media". The other, with the AT Protocol logo overlaid responds "No I am, I have way more users." Second panel has both of them look angerly look over to someone saying "Pousers" off screen. Third panel show one of them addressing a cloaked figure "What was that, punk?" Final panel shows the cloaked figure, who has the Org Mode logo overlaid, angerly repeat "Poseurs!"

    The official client is an emacs package, interesting! These parts from the readme made me chuckle:

    To consume and read other users' feeds, you can read them manually, use a script, or a client.

    Because of the decentralised nature it is very difficult to discover new users.

    WHY DOES EMACS HAVE A EXTENSION FOR FUCKING EVERYTHING?!

    It's meant to be a text editor. That's it.

    I'm getting all my friends into Meshtastic, a system of mesh networked packet radios that can be very cheap and do not require a HAM license.

    A few of us will be trying out then forking a BBS running on an RPi connected to a radio node. Though that will technically be less decentralized, it will be more social media like.

  • Matrix has at least 3 times as many users as bluesky. And most servers arent even publishing their users counts. But arguably most people arent using matrix as a social media platform. I wouldnt count discord as traditional social media either.
