There are many big and respectable names in the #Fediverse today. I'm curious though, where were you & what were you up to during the first 10 years of the network (2008–2018)? (c.im)

Care to share your background & why you jumped into #ActivityPub ?

@[email protected] 👍🏽 For some reason, after the lockdowns, it was when things started to change. There was Elon/Twitter exodus. Then the Reddit exodus. These two events made a huge impact than all the efforts combined prior to it.

But it's still hard to pinpoint what changed. I mean, media coverage was, I think similar as in the first 10 years, it was always about "Twitter alternative" from mass media. I guess what Elon and Reddit did are the trigger point and not the media coverage of a "Twitter/Reddit alternative"?
