@Jupiter Rowland Ok there may be some fanboys who like to stick to what they just learned... but his does not explain the phenomenon for me why so many free Web/internet/IT activist stay on #Masto.

Well, there are few on #Friendica - but very very few on #Hubzilla or #streams.

Again.. not talking about the crowd here but about activist groups like #eff #fsfe #digitalcourage and individuals who fighting for freedom in the digital world. There must be an other reason. I assume they are all some how cough up in patterns which keeps same from moving... patterns you believe in can be quid strong... if you believe social media is by definition a public thing than you will like the app which gives you the most follower and spreads your word as fare as possible.
