What would be an inciting incident for an Eternal September here?
The closest equivalence in the Fediverse is Threads, but it feels like Meta has done a decent job keeping up its walled garden combined with preliminary defederation of Threads from many smaller servers. I don’t know why a major company would want to use a federated entity to compete against Reddit.
The thing about this is that it’s often unexpected. AOL was on nobody’s radar. Threads was coming for a while. What you don’t know is what might happen if someone on Threads links to this community here and a post goes viral on Threads via a link to say Instagram, or Facebook, or both. What would happen here?
Really, I’m asking the question so people spend some time considering how important this community is to them and what might be required to work in new environments.
