The Fedipact statistics are interesting
7% of active users committed to #fedipact - https://fedidb.org/current-events/anti-meta-fedi-pact
* How representative of the user base is this, or are admins gatekeeping here? A large survey would be good to clear that up.
* EG, Mastodon, relative to its userbase, seems the most “Meta friendly” with only 57% of fedipact users (but ~80% all users)
* Fractal of niche-dom? Fedi ~1% of social media, fedi-pact ~ 10% of fedi. So anti-meta-fediverse ~0.1%?
@ada @haui_lemmy This is where it’s a bad thing that Tumblr hasn’t federated with the Fedi yet.
Having the “original” Fedi apps (including Mastodon) plus Tumblr would better balance the size of Threads.
There was an interesting pair of polls last summer about reactions to Threads and Tumblr. 66% of the respondents were either opposed to or alarmed by Threads federating, and only 10% were supportive. By contrast, only 15% were opposed to or alarmed by Tumblr, and 39% were supportive. It’s just one data point but still interesting!

@ajsadauskas Flipboard is actively working towards federation though.
