No, I don’t think it will be. I think it’s great, just like the rest of the Open Source universe is, but reaching the masses requires mass marketing, which requires money, which means there has to be a way to monetize. And again, I enjoy not having the masses flooding our FOSS spaces.
Mastodon was first released in 2016, by 2022 it had 4.5 million users, given the social media shift the entire fediverse has grown to around 13 million users in 2023.
Instagram Threads got 100 million users on its first week. Twitter has 450 million active users on July 2023. Facebook has 2.5 BILLION users.
I don’t think anyone is worried about the Fediverse, and I’m glad, I enjoy the less noisy ambience here.
How do I block judgemental assholes?
Hi,
I don’t want to see assholes with low IQ who cannot be bothered to look at the settings and documentation of the apps and websites they use and who’ll judge others based on his own preconceptions and biases.
– People choose to share nudes or go into porn for a very wide variety of reasons, and you should not be assuming anything about their self-esteem, dignity or self-worth, because you don’t know them or anything about them other than they chose a different lifestyle than yours.
It’s ok to not want to see it, you can turn it off in the setting or block the user/instance/domain that may be not properly tagging their adult content, but it is absolutely not ok to judge other users and insult them publicly just because you don’t like their lifestyle.
My thoughts: I don’t care! I am very happy with Lemmy and Kbin, so not going back there, thay can do whatever!
Tailscale uses the Wireguard protocol (in userspace, not kernel) along with a user and IP management system, a STUN system and a relay so they can provide easy management and connectivity even behind NAT or CGNAT. The relay uses https headers to hide the traffic, which provides a slower connection but allows connectivity in networks that block UDP or VPN traffic.
Installing a Wireguard server would use a kernel implementation of the WG protocol, but you have to open a port on the server side for it, and manually create the peer configuration and public/private keys for them. It is slightly faster, but not as easy to deploy or as versatile when dealing with complicated networks, dual NAT or CGNAT. Also very easy to block on networks as it does not obfuscates the traffic.
I chose to deploy a Wireguard server because it works well for my needs, but if I was behind CGNAT or connected through restrictive networks I would move to Tailscale.

Try different tools until you find one that suits you and learn with it until you are comfortable with the code, then you can use more advanced tools.
