I'm thinking about posting something longer on this, but I think the best way to grow the Fediverse is to get your IRL friends to join.
Yeah if you have a lot of friends then maybe. And even better very loyal friends who see the social media similarly to you. And who are motivated and excited about this whole thing like you. You build a team. I have a few friends but I don't see them coming here. When I talked to them about this the best response I got was Oh thats so cool, I'm sure it will grow or something like that. That's it. The problem is all of their social circle is on those big platforms. There is no point of moving somewhere else. Facebook/twitter "is just not that bad" for them. Content that they see is adjusted to them and its all good.
Not just you personally. If everyone can bring a friend, we could double the size of the Fediverse. Now I am really thinking I need to write the effortpost.
