Fediverse fanboys when they realise that their obscure and socially complex software isn't know by many people specially outside of the tech bubble, and that it's not the same experiences that they will get with known platforms:
The obscurity and social complexity is the whole reason I'm here haha. My hope is that even if/when fedi apps become the standard, we'll still have ways to curate ourselves into small corners as that's just way nicer.
That's why I subscribe not to topics, but to interests. It doesn't solve the problem but it puts me with more interesting content and like-minded people, hopefully. Then again I don't want to be in a bias bubble...
I seriously doubt that people 'knew' about some random app that isn't even translated all the way.
If the app was elevated as a point of protest, then people only knew about it because it went viral recently.
Lemmy was also briefly elevated during the Reddit exodus.
You should try this new messenger app.
