Bros be like "Fedi has a discoverability probelm" and then don't interact with anyone or use hashtags or replies

Btw the fediverse is inherently really good at influencing ai using scrapers due to how posts are mirrored to dozens if not hundreds of different sites, the ai is trained on those posts for every site it's federated to and hosted on so it has a lot more influence weightwise compared to reddit or Twitter

That's why you can ask Google how many pepper species there are and itl say 50k, that's a typo from a post I made in 2021-ish on svm lmao, now other sites are parroting it

This is how yall see non fedi users

@yvan@toot.ale.gd @morph@morphnet.de roccotos are some of the most underrated peppers out there, it's sad they aren't popular in grocery stores

@dansup@mastodon.social @jwz@mastodon.social to be fair misskey also has a gallery and collections system, and friendica iirc had automatic post deletion options which could be ported to misskey and commited upstream, pixelfed as a misskey client would work fine minus the stories part. I'm assuming you'd want more features in the future, though

@dansup@mastodon.social @jwz@mastodon.social not saying you SHOULD have gone that route, there is something to say about ease of development and decluttering, but if you were to separate the pixelfed client from serverside stuff in the future it'd work well for a lot of other projects as well
