Is it the band The Contradictions?

Good point, thats the correct way to look at it.

Yes! Internet fame achieved!!

they don't have it on the new app yet, and it's not super intuitive to begin with compared to signal or whatsapp
-
matrix and xmpp just don't have the intuitive onboarding that signal has when coming from whatsapp

And Signal isn’t?!
Signal is centralised.

Kinda feels like bluesky is already going to hell in a handbasket, so maybe not.

They are treated like letters because they arent instant, like letters. Hell, some emails could take full minutes to send.
Only time I have the problem is when people attach large files. While is the same problem with other "IM" methods.

You're welcome

Yeah they've tried to make it as similar as whatsapp. But it's hard convincing your entire family to switch again after signal just because you found a cool new app to switch to, lol

While not part of the fediverse if you want Twitter like activity I would suggest BlueSky. However I am also on Mastodon and I find it to have plenty of activity. It’s not the fire hose that Twitter is but to me that makes it much more manageable.

People moving from Xitter to Bluesky don’t understand why they moved. They have no clue.

George Takei is active of mastodon. There are many journalists and scientists. Tons of developers. A few small celebs. Also, many people I don't want to be here are not here. That's a plus for me.
