Prove it wrong: the fediverse is not as connected as we’re told, and it’s splintering even more now.
This is what makes the Fediverse so frustrating, been using: #Kbin #FireFish #Mastodon #Friendica #IceShrimp #Lemmy.
And no, they don’t speak to one another / find one another or are able to follow / like / reply to one another as one is told the Fediverse works.
The truth: some speak to some, and it rarely works both ways. Eg. Mastodon can do a lot more interacting with Lemmy, but not the other way around.
And then there are those that defederate from their own kind / federated social network, splintering the Fediverse even further apart.
Have had to either join new servers + delete current accounts, just because the server that was suggested, happened to be a server that others chose to defederate with.
Now with many accounts + many instances, been trying to find the best place to just have one space in the Fediverse + be able to communicate, follow and interact with other Fediverse users.
Maybe it’s this is wrong, but this has been the experience for almost a year now.
I would chalk most of that up to relative nascence, and mostly volunteer labor. I would expect things to improve. In the meantime, I’m fine with my lemmy and mastodon instances, and don’t feel a lack of much.
