@asklemmy What do you think it would take for people to drop Twitter & Reddit and move to the Fediverse?

Oh yeah I've been on signal for ages now. Relatively easy to get people on that though because the UI is so familiar

Easier to get fediverse users on there over everyone else from what Iโ€™ve found. People can be stubborn

I've had basically no resistance with signal. The selling point being WhatsApp but without Facebook spying tends to work fairly well

Nobody wants to be spied on, the only issue is most people also can't be bothered to learn a new app
