In general, I think communities shouldn’t splinter until there’s a need. IMO both efforts should just use [email protected], and title posts in a way that makes the distinction clear. They’re both about growing the Fediverse in the end. If and when it becomes too much to keep in the same comm, then you’d split it up. That’s just my opinion as an internet rando though 🤷
There’s a sudden influx of users from instagram and tiktok and whatnot because of the ban, zuckerberg fellating Trump, and all of that stuff going on. So the answer to “What’s getting posted?” is “everything”
Signal has a lot of overlap there. They’ve got disappearing messages and Stories
Source hasn’t been released, but the dev has said it will be and there’s no reason to doubt that IMO. Same dev as pixelfed which is open source and federated
Pinging @[email protected] since you run social.photo as a sister site to discuss.online
Tags are coming soon, which I think would be equivalent:
