I’m genuinely interested in people thoughts about the Fediverse because here in the UK it has massively stalled in 2025, like a lot of things. I am seeing way less posts from UK people and way less interaction and general use in fact. Most seem to have stopped social media use to be fair, and I know a lot of that is to do with my age (old fart here, 56 laps round sun and counting) but the numbers game look poor from my point of view. Do we think the Fediverse has a future now after useage appears to be going downwards? Is it a UK thing? (well I know the UK is weird but hey)
What other things? For the Fediverse, there doesn’t seem to be a large UK mastodon instance: https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/list
For corporate social media, is there any UK based social media?
Nope… us Brits are a strange lot. Heck it is why I asked the q to start with because brits ARE so strange
Still, what other UK “things” have more than 2500 monthly active users ?
All the meta products, reddit, old fashioned forums… plenty of things. Discourse (pah) tik tok. Different but have way more users. I’m genuinely curious how they get so little traffic in this day and age against other methods. And yes, I know I’m asking on Lemmy, but I’m new here, and I still cannot fathom why they are so quiet
Aren’t all of those US focused?
