Do you think this fediverse-analogy is any good for telling people about the fediverse?

(FYI: I’m not a native speaker so please bear with some potential grammatical errors)

    I think it’s a pretty nice analogy! The one minor issue I have is it makes moving between instances sound way more seamless than it actually is, almost like Mastodon migrations, although it’s probably fine for a quick intro.

      I take that into consideration - I mean its also a bit of wishful thinking and advertisment. It should be that easy, right?

        Then it’s more a fediverse utopia than a fediverse analogy :-P

        Honestly, I think we should stay true to what it is, not to what it might become. We don’t know if, and when.

        It’s better to not wake expectations than to disappoint them.

    only thing that i dont really like is the white text on the last pic
    maybe some gray 0.5 alpha behind the text would help the readability

    Bonus points for using images from Tuca and Bertie. I love that show.

    A good analogy uses things that people already know… Bird parties aren’t an actual thing that make simple sense. Maybe it’s just me
