John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed
It's brief, around 25:15
If you've been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.
Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they're excited about the idea. I've really enjoyed reading through them :)
No love for lemmy?
I think discussion forum type apps are just niche by default. Reddit never courted the masses, it was a site for geeks (and now it's being turned into a site for the fedoraรจd clientele exclusively). And despite what Facebook hoped, Threads isn't exactly a household name.
Threads
Oh right, that exists
His videos are uploaded on PeerTube as well. I donโt know if his team is doing it or a fan. lastweektonight_channel@tube.fede.re
given that the name contains "(unofficial mirror)", I'm willing to take a guess
It says its an unofficial mirror
Is there a Roku client for PeerTube?
Looks like there is one PeerVue as per the following link:
Thanks! Iโll check it out.
This might actually be kind of huge. Doesnโt he have a pretty big outreach?
He did that a month ago: https://feddit.nl/post/29282674
Oh, so it didnโt do that much then. Oh well, still good exposure!
Its like with normal advertisement. If you heard the name of it before, especially from a trustworthy source, then it instantly becomes more trustworthy to you. When people seriously start looking for alternatives, they will think back or try to find that episode again.
Yeah the question is where does he personally have his social media? X, facebook, instagram by the looks of it?
I don't see him on mastodon
Hmm. If people like himself were to start using Mastodon and Pixelfed, there would be a bigger increase of users for sure.
John Oliver's the GOAT, along with Jon Stewart.
John Goodman, John Candy, John F. Kennedy, John C. Reilly, John Denver. Trust in the Jo(h)ns..
I'd be careful around anyone whose middle name is John, though. There's this one guy with stupid hair that ruins everything he touches. Heard he's in charge of a whole country now.
John Wick?
I would trust him to watch my dogs.
I don't know, man, his seems pretty dead.
Don't forget John Green!
Thatโs a lot of John son.
Johnson had a big johnson
Jon Stewart and the daily show forged many legends
That was nice of him
Pixelfed is growing fast.
A few months ago, it was like me and six other losers. It's great to see!
What does it do? Is it a direct alternative for something?
It's an alternative to Instagram
Signal? Does it have channels like Telegram?
Yes, but a cabinet level government official has to add you
So itโs pretty easy to get in.
Now if only he promoted XMPP as well
Bruh
Fuck BlueSky, they are full of shit.
Signal is centralized in the US.
