I appreciate projects like the Forkiverse. I think bringing in new people in groups is exactly the way to properly populate the Fediverse - it benefits from every added community that already has shared interests, and continues to actively talk about them.

Welcome to the 3K+ people currently exploring the Fediverse for the very first time! 😊

@Radgryd
I have no idea what the forkiverse is? It sorta sounds like you could adopt communities from other platforms into the fediverse. Is that what it is?
I only have a limited understanding of the fediverse. For instance, they say that ur mastodon handle can used in a similar fashion as ur email address although I have not tried it.

@laurencelawlor It's a fairly new Mastodon instance/server set up by a podcast team. 😊 You are on mastodon.social, they are on theforkiverse.com - but you can still talk to each other, like you're talking to me! I'm on mstdn.games!

The Fediverse is similar to email in which you have Yahoo, Gmail, GMX.. and so on, and anyone can set up a server for themselves or a group or community and talk to each other! Like someone@yahoo.com can talk to someone@gmail.com!

@Radgryd Oh, that's a fun new thing! Can't wait to see posts from all the new people!

@Radgryd Thanks! Any change is always interesting. Appreciate your welcoming vibe.

The first time I took a look at the instance they had 2.4K registered users. Now they're at 6.1K. That's quite impressive. Really curious to see how big it grows and for how long people will remain active.

@Radgryd It's great. Just a shame to see so many moaners sticking their oar in. #forkiverse

@Radgryd I wish them the best

in the past, instances that spun up quickly with thousands of users and little fediverse experience very quickly tended to run into moderation and culture conflict issues, hopefully they'll figure out how to navigate this 🤷
