@smallcircles🫧 socialcoding.. private property social media is *designed* to make you stay there as long as possible — creating familiarity and making you remember and think about it more frequently.

Since #fediverse intent to be healthier, it does't break your #autonomy about your time and probably never makes you addicted. The consequence is that it's harder to stay using it more than how much we used corporate social media. Plus, the fact that popular people aren't much here.

Both of the things we "lack of" are interesting only for #capitalism , not the liberating place we're making.

What I think can be done about Fediverse popularity is attracting more progressive and popular people here — by actually presenting it to them.
