realcaseyrollinsWhy BlueSky Isn’t the Alternative to X (Formerly Twitter) You’re Looking For — and Why Mastodon Is the Better Choice Over X, Threads, and BlueSky
JaymesRSAs long as the fediverse has a barrier to entry for most people of mandating choosing a server first, it will never become the mainstream choice.
db0Yeah, things requiring choosing a instance like, say, email, are doomed to fail
I’m guessing you meant this sarcastically, but you may have been right for the wrong reasons. Look at this graph, by the metric of the way the fediverse works that is a failure. Apple and Google are massively dominant because people don’t want to think about it and most just go with their phone os maker who makes them create one when setting it up, and there is no fediverse server equivalent to that.
ZakThis looks like it’s conflating service providers and clients. Thunderbird doesn’t provide email accounts to the public as far as I know.
zerozakuSame with Apple mail right? I never used an Apple device and was shocked to see them over Gmail because I thought Apple actually gives email service when I saw the graph.

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification.
Apple does have an email service, but I think “Apple Mail” is the name is the client, not the service.
