@kainoa @atomicpoet @mastodonmigration Dishing out thumbs down👎 emojis to new users who are excited about your application and just trying to help, however misdirected you think the suggestions, are is one way do it. Good luck to you guys.
@atomicpoet @[email protected] @mastodonmigration Was just thinking about how to promote the rollout of Fediverse microblogging alternatives. Sorry to have touched a nerve.
@kainoa @atomicpoet @mastodonmigration Sorry, we seem to be getting off on the wrong foot. This is an amazing capability. Full stop. You guys are amazing. My thoughts were presented only in the spirit of trying to be helpful and based on a long history with product launches. You are right that this is not a corporate product, and I am sure you are inundated with "helpful suggestions". Wish you all the best.
@kainoa @atomicpoet @mastodonmigration Understood, it's been out, but very few people actually know about it, or what it is. Also, quite honestly, it's amazing, but not yet ready for prime time. The suggestion was to think about a "marketing plan" way to generate buzz and interest. This is something that comes naturally for corporate product roll-out programs, but open systems generally struggle with because they focus on the technology and not on the marketing.
@atomicpoet @mastodonmigration Just spit-balling... It might be a really good idea to develop and execute a real PR plan for a Calckey "launch". Right now it is in "Alpha" and you are gathering "Early Adopter" feedback. It still needs a few things: the default interface needs to be toned down (IMO) and tuned up, edit feature, bigger composition window, bugs stomped, and ready for influx of new users without stumbling. Pick a date about a month from now to announce the "Early Beta Release".... or something. Think of a way to spin as a Fediverse Mastodon alternative. Put out a real press release and contact all the tech media.

The ideal time to execute the plan would be as the bloom starts to go off of Bluesky which should take a month or so. "Bluesky fails to live up to the hype but new Fediverse alternatives emerge..."

In any case, good luck! Looking forward to seeing where this all goes!
@vwbusguy @vwbusguy Welcome! This is the @mastodonmigration Calckey partner account, one day in. So far, so good!
@binarytango @evan Also, it is interesting to note that #Bluesky Terms of Service includes their AT Protocol in the "Services" subject to the content license. So, and they get a license to all content transmitted using their proprietary protocol. Cool, right?
@arshubham @mastodonmigration Pretty new here, but yes. Discovery seems to work well. You can type in any Fediverse name and it seems to find it quickly.
