I wonder what will be the next major driver of #migration to the #Fediverse? X/Musk does something that drives away users, or governments? It catches on at last in the EU? Bluesky blows up? #Loops⁩ goes viral? Facebook shuts down? #Threads makes sharing the default? Many features people complained were lacking years ago are now in place, but it doesn't feel as if the Fediverse is growing much overall, ⁨https://fedidb.com/⁩ . #Mastodon

@mpjgregoire@cosocial.ca Loops I believe will bring the next wave of users when our apps are published to the app store and we start our marketing campaign. It just takes one big creator/influencer or media outlet to spread the word. I also think that our upcoming Communities offering will bring a lot of new people.

Of all the possibilities I've listed above, I think Loops is the most likely. People seem to love short-form video, I don't think there's much lock-in to current platforms, and Loops is a serious attempt to do TikTok, but better. Of course, many people like things as is; I trust they'll still be able to find instances that suit them, even if the Fediverse becomes much more popular.
