  • It's at least something to explain what the title's referencing. Acknowleding that smaller audiences are often preferred doesn't really seem at odds with that. It just points to A and B having higher priority than C, right?

    But people should just read the article, it's pretty quick and has more context than the quote.

  • I would say that’s not actually the key quote at all, especially since the author states that many times finding a smaller audience is the goal.

  • This, worded in far more technical terms than I had understood back at the time, is one of the reasons why I've always opposed the idea of "merging" communities in the Fediverse. Merging views is fine, but merging the communities themselves and all that this means (focus, themes, memberships, rules, censorships, timezones...) is just Not.

  • Key quote for the curious:

    They [the paper he's discussing] conclude that there's a community-member's "trilemma": a set of three priorities that can never be fully satisfied by any group. The trilemma consists of users' need to find:

    a) A community of like-minded people;

    b) Useful information; and

    c) The largest possible audience.

    The thing that puts the "lemma" in this "trilemma" is that any given group can only satisfy two of these three needs. It's hard to establish the kinds of intimate, high-trust bonds with the members of a giant, high-traffic group, but your small, chummy circle of pals might not be big enough to include people who have the information you're seeking.

    @thisismissem@hachyderm.io replied but it didn't make it over to Lemmy. > @poVoq @fediverse there's also a proposal (from google) for IdP Initiated FedCM, instead of relying party initiated

    To add a remote community to your forum index, you'll want to go to ACP > Manage > Categories Under the "Add Category" dropdown, you can select the option to add a remote category. [image: 1772125672080-cd6c786d-c376-4b76-a1da-d301074cb142-image.jpeg] Then you can treat them like any other category (re-order, rename, etc.) The page you're on now, the category synchronization, allows a category to follow another category, and automatically cross-post its posts to that category. It also kind of does what you want, but it'll be more straightforward to add the remote community directly.

    Hmmmm, I suppose, but Facebook never had a Dislike, they added emoji reactions, technically, no?
