   Fedi of so fucking stagnant. I'm seriously wondering if it's time to call it a failed experiment

     @NEETzsche The problem I see is that metaposting is actually poison. And this network does it a lot.

     Nobody actually has a real hobby outside of talking about fedi drama or something that is outside the realm of something that you could easily do on the computer.

     Go get a multimeter and go measure some electricity and then post your results about how you figured out how resistors work or something. go for a ride on your bicycle and go into the forest and take pictures of nature. Go get your pilot's license and go take pictures of the sky and clouds. Do literally anything, because that's what people on social networks like Facebook and Instagram or TikTok are actually doing. Those platforms despite being really cringe sometimes produce good OC or something that's actually interesting. Like I don't even see people play video games here. This is like the only social network where everyone exclusively talks about how much of a fucking loser they are or how much of a loser someone else is, or making variations of the seven same fediverse inside jokes because it was funny the first 200 times. I feel like nobody here actually has anything going on.

     Probably an unpopular opinion, and definitely out of character for me but dude I've introspected a lot about this shit for the past four some years of what I've seem and I definitely can see patterns in people's posting.

     Well idk about engagement. I typically post too fast to really respond to everything and I don't really care about upcummies anymore I stopped caring after I left Facebook like 6 years ago. I rather talk about guns or mechanic things but nobody does that on here. The few people that do are dwarfed by the exponential number of laincels who think they are cyberpunk because they use IRC or installed a graphics card.

     The Nirvana of here is when you just post shit that you are interested in, and one or two people who are also interested in that thing that you are personally doing follow you. You want mass appeal? Go on Xitter and just rip some memes from some users and post them here it works like clockwork. Which is why I don't care about interactions that much. That's probably not exactly what you meant about interactions or social.

     But the main point I'm trying to make is I don't really give a shit, and that's how you win. Just stop caring and somehow it works. Shit's not that serious.

     @splitshockvirus I know exactly what you mean and I think part of the issue is lack of engagement. The only things on here that people really respond to are the small handful of things I listed. If you post shit that's not in that tiny wheelhouse you're posting into the void. I've been chided for bringing this up but the social part of social media is that you interact with other people, and if your actually interesting post gets ignored because it's not a spurious accusation of pedophilia and you didn't say nigger, then guess what everybody else will post
