npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2 (npub120z…33r2) I'm taking a new approach to Fediverse evangelism.

Previously, when people asked me about another Fediverse service such as pixelfed (npub1q03…622l), I'd spend untold hours explaining it to them -- even providing screenshots.

People would go, "Oh, neat!" -- then never try it.

But now if people ask me about
#[0] Yesterday, I expressed exasperation that Mastodon users don't try other Fediverse services. The sheer numbers bear witness too this.

While Mastodon has ~10 million accounts, #[1] only has ~150,000 accounts.

That means 9,850,000 of you have never tried #[2] -- and besides, Pixelfed is one of the most popular Fediverse services.

This unwillingness to try the rest of the Fediverse could end up killing the Fediverse!
, I'm going to tell them, "Try it!"

Not only will this save me time and effort, it will hopefully provoke them to use services like #[3].
