v̾i̾t̾r̾i̾o̾l̾i̾x̾@arstechnica just for context, that's <1% of it's user base
http.james@vitriolix Honestly, that’s still impressive… It’s definitely not easy to move 1.62 billion users lol
@httpjames yeah, it is an it isn't. the real test will be if they can sustain and retain. they had a pretty big head start to pull in power users / early adopters with a pretty streamlined process for setup and building out your core network, the key is do they get any traction with the rest of their user base.
I'd predict, for what that's worth that yes, they'll get some pretty big traction but they won't rival twitter any time soon
