So like StumbleUpon but vendor-locked to already popular services. Any possibility it could get a Fediverse edition? That sounds actually useful instead of supporting continued useage of platforms with boardroom controlled content-selection algorithms.

Unless you like seminars about GNU, there's not really a lot of original media on the Fediverse that the average person would be interested in.

The Fediverse is a niche within a niche.

supports a total of 16 platforms

16 commercial web sites that are actively destroying the internet. Not that "obscure" IMHO.

They said obscure contents not obscure platforms
