I don’t think the Fediverse will become mainstream. But I’m actually happy about that. And so should you.

    Yes. I’m already noticing a lot more rude and immature people as the number of users grow.

      This is where the system of Favorite and Reduce comes in. Same concept on Reddit with upvotes and downvotes. Hopefully the community will help to filter out the noise, but again, history tends to repeat itself.

      I’ve noticed some transphobia and homophobia recently too (usually from lemmy.world accounts 👀)

        Well of course. Lemmy is not censored like the other social media platforms so you will get to hear what people actually think here.

        A lot of people feel uncomfortable around gay and trans people. It will take time.
