Open post grμmpy @grumpy@mirr0r.city · 46mo ago Replying to @sysop408@sfba.social @Julie@social.coop I think some of the "Make a #BlackMastodon" comments might be misunderstood. Mastodon likely won't get much traction until it's seen by the masses the way they see Twitter... as a casual hangout. I think it's going to be very hard to effect culture change in an established online society w/o actually creating a space for the underserved to thrive on their own first b/c trying to be welcoming won't get far. The neighbors need to want to move in on their own before "trying" is meaningful. @sysop408@sfba.social @Julie@social.coop >Mastodon likely won't get much traction until it's seen by the masses the way they see Twitter... what do you mean exactly? mastodon has plenty of "traction" already
