Which software? Lemmy?

There are always needs for self-hosting for everything.

I can see some education institution set up their 3D model instance, and make it federated with other entities.

The problem is content discovery, right? As I said before, people are working to fix that right now.

Social web is basically similar to early internet, where discovering new things is hard.

Fediverse itself is still “early phase”

There are plenty of proposal of features social web community, handled W3C organization, such as easier way to find content (if the instance want it to be public.)

There’s definitely a value of community being able toset up instance of their own 3D pirinting models.

Lol, as Javanese, It’s funny that Javanese ethnic name -> Javanese coffee -> Javanese programming language.

People still keep thinking that I was a programmer or making a typo of Japanese everytime I mention I speak Javanese.

It’s legit applicable for people that have Twitter just for realtime earthquake warning.

At least its applicable for Indonesian users.

If people of your country is more likely to use Twitter, moving to Bluesky is not even realistic.

Also, for a lot of countries, moving to Bluesky is like moving from American controlled platform to the same American controlled platform.

1. Non-Westerner that never have or realized alternative platform exist.
2. Artist that dependant on mainstream social media reach. (some artists already have 100K+ followers there, fedi also have limited reach due to instance blocking, e.g. you’re on Mastodon.art and want to reach Japanese audience (mainly misskey.io, but t was defederated on most of Western instance.)
3. People with social network bubble outside Westernsphere, they only have exclusively local feed on their Twitter.
4. People outside Westernsphere that already tried fediverse, but moving back as fediverse is still Western-centric or does not have their own community on feidverse.
5. Community that does not have monetary power to invest on their own fedi instance.

The original image seems related to Westernsphere social media huh

Facebook in my region (Southeast Asia) is still filled with Gen Z, wirh various niche groups that often have more than 100K members. From anime meme to satirical anti-corruption group. Or fried chicken seller group and book barter for your small city.

I was active moderating on one local music group band on FB with 250K members.

I hope I can change Facebook for fediverse, but there’s still no Facebook group alternative and actual active community on fediverse to make it happen.
