Abandoned America on Nostr: 4/ In the long run people joining will choose to switch instances if they want to. ...
4/ In the long run people joining will choose to switch instances if they want to. Trying to guilt, shame, or badger them into doing it is what drives people away. Showing them the benefits, making doing so easier, and offering stable alternatives is what will make it work. If we want Fediverse growth then there are going to be issues like spam and managing differing perspectives without forcing users to switch instances because of them.
