I'm genuinely interested in people thoughts about the Fediverse because here in the UK it has massively stalled in 2025, like a lot of things. I am seeing way less posts from UK people and way less interaction and general use in fact. Most seem to have stopped social media use to be fair, and I know a lot of that is to do with my age (old fart here, 56 laps round sun and counting) but the numbers game look poor from my point of view. Do we think the Fediverse has a future now after useage appears to be going downwards? Is it a UK thing? (well I know the UK is weird but hey)

Hey yes, early days with this instance. But seemed the right/correct place to ask generally....

You probably want to register it on https://lemmy-federate.com/

And federate the active communities from https://feddit.uk/communities

thanks.... learning as we go here. Run other instances for people but I have got to say for many of my clients they are seeing a massive drop in the fediverse in general after modest growth. The general consensus is that creators want to earn money rather than have freedom

For creators, it makes sense to favor the commercial platforms.

For Reddit users, the Fediverse is a good enough alternative.
