I'm actually somewhat happy all this happened now. I'm sad for the 3rd party app devs and everyone who suffers from these decisions. And for the wonderful communities and knowledge bases that were shattered.
But I think it caused me, and many others, to realize that great community and discussions could still be had on the internet, and that we hadn't been having those for quite a while over on reddit.
It’s been boosting discovery of fediverse and causing an explosion of both traffic and hopefully donations.
How have you going about this? I'm interested in the same. I see real potential for this type of accessible decentralized platform.
