Cuz the comments throught Lemmy/Piefed seems to indicate that literally every user on here is a FOSS/Dencentralization Purist and has 100% abandoned mainstream platforms.
I wonder if this is actually true or just a small minority of users being overrepresented.


Not much, but I leave a site more so because I felt the experience became obnoxious at some point for each specific site. I didn’t want to be there anyways even before any other reason gets a chance to set in. I have very low tolerance for corporate / conservative fuckery.
I still use YouTube but my subs aren’t toxic it’s mostly just educational material and retro/modern tech channels. Zero politics. Adblock, Sponsorblock, Tweaks for YT.
I still use Twitch but only for old core variety streamers such as Vinesauce, Jerma, PMW. I adblock and don’t sub.
That’s it now for “mainstream.”
