π€·ββοΈI will await a point in time when that happens. Been there for a year so far and only blocked by 20 instances or so.
Been there for a year. I'm doing pretty good with my 930 followers. π€·ββοΈ And I don't really give a single fuck who blocks me, let em.π€£

Still going to be the same, and I already pull from momostr.
35 instances? That's literally .1% of Fediverse instances though.... However, it doesn't matter which "side" because I'm on my own instance and I don't have to pick a side.
Nostr is very much only attached to the wild west of ActivityPub at this point.

Hell, #Ditto getting AP meshing wouldn't do much either for me.
Momostr.pink is what you should be looking for. I'm on the "normal" side.
Deleted Amethyst today after the update removed the view count feature.
To me, its now the same as any other app cause I don't really use the chat, communities, or live stream features. The one reason I used it over others was to be able to experiment how the network spreads posts around and see the views rack up.
Considering that I don't get hardly any engagement here, along with Ditto's Mastodon API not working, and now my "passive experimentation" getting thrown out the window, I think I'm pretty done with Nostr.
I have my own Fediverse instance, so I don't really have a need for censorship resistance. Not to mention the fact that all my posts there are bridged here AND I can get zapped from them. I just don't have a reason to keep posting here.π€·ββοΈ
It was a fun time while it lasted, but I'm better off spending my time engaging with my own followers on Fediverse.

Weird. "Lots of people like this feature. Fuck those people"π¬π€¦ββοΈ
π€this seems to imply it's one or the other but both work with the Mastodon API so apps work. Do you have it running for both? Or know of an instance where it works for both so I can try? However, I've just been made aware that the mastodon API part is apparently broken. IceCubes nor Mona work with it right now. I won't try it on my on server till that's fixed.

Damn, I enjoyed the view count...π©
For sure, I didn't ask him directly because I tried asking him something related to the bridge last week and he never answered so I assumed he was just to popular to respond...π¬
But yeah, I know about the bridges, however, they either use the hex or npub for the usernames, making natural interactions very unlikely because when they reply, it looks like they're replying to a bot, making them feel a type of way.
Just to confirm, #Ditto doesn't work with #ActivityPub as well, does it?
I didn't think so, just had someone claim as such so I figured I'd ask.
AFAIK, you have to choose between Soapbox with ActivityPub or Soapbox with Ditto/Nostr.
It'd be cool if it worked with both. However, I don't see how that would be possible, since they both use Webfinger. But maybe I just don't understand it all.
If anyone knows more, please enlighten me, thanks.

No wonder this platform only has a 1% user retention. People literally giving money away and no engagement....π³π€¦

The general public wasn't paying, but a LOT of platforms started paying pretty early...Instagram is the first that comes to mind, but if you call Youtube social media too, they've been paying even longer.π€·ββοΈ
Money needs to be made for it to thrive, I feel. Which is why Fediverse is struggling to gain steam right now as well, despite it seemingly growing in popularity, the MAU are going down month by month. Monetization is a big deal.
I got a bit over 900 on Fediverse but π€· that doesn't matter here lmao
