So how do we stop Mastodon from becoming Ello or Peach?

@zack I frankly don't even know those but I think the difference is this is an already established network?

@Gargron Is there an import users function? I'm having trouble finding people to follow.
As for those, ello.co and peach.cool respectively were previous "flash in the pan" social phenoms.

@zack The Ostatus federation is already well established. To find new users you can look at the public streams at other OStatus enabled network like social.heldscal.la, quitter.se or shitposter.club.

@lambadalambda Cool! I had no idea this was a thing!

@zack It's kind of hidden, but it's getting more popular now.

@Gargron So after a bunch of other people replied about Ostatus, I now know what you mean by "established network." I just came here from Product Hunt <womp> so I didn't know about the deeper tech at play. :)
