   Not to be an extrovert but the answer to the problem of "why don't people come to my party?" Is that you gestured at your street and said there's a lot of fun parties they could join.

   Which, that's not an invitation, that's a brush off.

     To be clear my solution here is: invite people to your server.

     Don't gesture at the fediverse in general and say "I think dot art is good for artists?" Interest based communities imply you should only be posting about that shared interest, which is stifling.

     The people need a place to Post.

     "What about dot social?" Everyone I know on twitter/bsky has a dot social account that stands empty as the plinth of Ozimandius.

     Opinion: kinda wish people would work harder on making fedi more accessable rather than just ragging on bluesky.

     Normal people who aren't power users are going to gravitate to whatever's easiest to find their friends on, regardless of the maniacs at the helm and bsky isn't even serving ads yet.

     I'm not over here because the other sites are immoral, I'm over here because I trust my wife with my posts.
