The Fediverse has always been the domain of losers who couldn't hack it on Twitter and don't have the means or the ability to build their own websites. This has been the case when the only game in town was GNU Social, and it's still the case today. On most Mastodon servers you'll find people posting from their parents' basements in come-stained Che Guevara t-shirts. On Pleroma you find 4chan rejects and neo-Nazis who can't bring themselves to make accounts on Gab.<p>Don't waste your time on the Fediverse unless you want to hang out on Fosstodon or BSD.network.
