I am yet to find one that for anything I actually use.
If I would want to make a full time switch there’s need to be a user base large enough to support niche interests without seeing a sad little 2 subscribers in 4 versions of the same thing all on a different instance. None active.
Don’t get me wrong, I use them. But it’s not exclusive.
But those are many different statements. Feature parity Exclusivity Activity Large userbase
Feature parity is impossible to achieve while staying away from corpo cash, this has nothing to do with activity and that has nothing to do with userbase. Lastly, exclusivity is your decision and nothing else. I‘m fine (and so are about 50 others in this thread) with leaving reddit behind for example.
The issue here is that you treat community projects like multi billion dollar businesses. Thats very ignorant to say the least.
