Ooh, I get you now! I am sorry if I made that impression, I did not mean to say that. I totally agree on your point. It should not be an real option to let them use threads. I agree on some people here, that its better than nothing, but its still meta.

    Ich erinnere mich noch an den Release. Das "größte open World multiplayer Spiel" , nur mit dem Problem, dass die einfach gelogen haben, dass es multiplayer ist. Ich finde es interessant, wie sich das game trotz berechtigtem Shitstorm halten konnte.

    Maby telling them about crossposting, that they can, if they want, post their activies throughout multiple social media at the same time, so as many people as possible can see it. Well its getting more technically, I apologize!

    Thank you for your answer. I want to start telling you, that your opinion on the whole topic is one of the most valuable answers.

    You are the exact kind of people the fediverse needs and are adressing a couple of real issues the fediverse needs to work on. Helping small communities finding a way, maby to start briding their content over to the fediverse as easy as possible. I think we need to start giving people like you an option to come here and stay here. Without loosing their access to their community.

    In my opinion the fediverse lack of users is not a feautre. Its one of the worst things and it needs to fight that issue. And this is exactly where we need to find answers. And is it really a thing that people will argue on here because they still use instagram or sth else?? Wtf!? We should be happy for every user trying to join the fediverse.

    Maby talk to your community, If you want to help your community, maby start creating fediverse accounts for them.

    While they are mainly using instagram because of the memes, what platform should I start with? Lemmy is a great start for memes I believe, but a bit ugly for people not familiar using (old)reddit. Loops is not that organised yet and flooded with peoples personal videos of random things, maby mastodon? (I know you were referring to instances but I think this is also important to think about first)

    So I am a big fan of the Fediverse, I love the idea of decentralisation and I believe this is how the future of social media should be. But here starts the problem.

    All my friends are using Instagram or TikTok or else. I didnt think of that while I also used Instagram, but I think they are highly addicted. Its not possible for them to not use Instagram for at least 1h when we meet up. When I still used Instagram, I was part of the problem. But now that I left it a couple of months ago, I just realised the problem I used to live in.

    Addiction is all about realising you are addicted, but I find it very hard to address the problem. I dont want to harm our friendship over social media and I am afraid that when I tell them about their addiction, they will not agree and find it impolite.

    So I believe that social media can only survive if the people use it. Its all about user generated content and while the Fediverse is doing better than ever, it still needs more users ASAP.

    How can we achieve getting those people on the Fediverse and, more importantly, hold them here, while they slowly get less addicted to social media and see the potential of the Fediverse.

    Thank you for reading and for thinking about possible answers. I wrote the whole text by myself, this is not AI generated.
