Misskey seems really popular looking at numbers. I’m confused because nobody talks about it. Is it because of some niche super active audience?

Did they just remove their comments?

Talking from a usability standpoint it’s gotten much better. It’s still slow to open the app but the search got much more efficient.

Unfortunately yes.

I’m a minority: I’m using Signal a lot, as well as Mastodon and Lemmy. However I was describing the situation around me and they’re largely using Meta products.

I don’t mind having 2 tools: one for public conversations with strangers and one for family and friends.

WhatsApp has replaced Facebook for family and friends here in France. However, I keep using Facebook due to local groups and town hall posting there.
