> Federation won't save imageboards, i think they're bound to be 'niche' forever.

He's running quests, he doesn't need for image boards to be saved, just some software to enable this activity.

What's wrong with them being niche? Niche stuff tends to be more interesting: either it's focused on something interesting, or it's at weird shit that you haven't seen before. Focus broadens when more people show up.

> Fediverse also is not growing much.

People say this when they are bored with the people they usually interact with, not when they actually see growth taper. There have been maybe 40 new instances a day for the last month, look at the chart: http://demo.fedilist.com/ . The low point is 31. Look at @fedilist.
