I don't care because I don't feel attacked by someone speaking another language than my own.

If you want you can ask for moderation to delete the post, I won't mind.

I was thinking despite the content in French it might interested English people as well. I'm pretty sure being French isn't a requirement to speak French...

Because it's a French conference.

 

French conference in the Php Forum 2023 in Paris.

Edit : So there are 3 main reasons :

  • journals are driven by their communities, so to attract more people they relay the informations interesting the largest group of people : so proprietary software news it is!
  • talking about libre software is often tied with political engagement. Journalist often don't want to be put on a political side or another, so talking about libre software is difficult.
  • most libre software project just don't communicate toward journals and journalists. And when they do they don't soften the speech enough and always blame journalists to much about their own use of proprietary software.

OK so you think what happened to XMPP won't happen to Mastodon. Fair enough.

To me the growing part is mostly to get content creator to come to the fedi with theirs communities.

I also do think Meta will do anything it can to kill Mastodon if it have the chance to.

And you really think that Threads in the fedi will means people on the Threads instance will know there is other instances with no ads? And you think they will care?

I mean there are ways to watch YouTube without ads for years. And most people still won't uses them...

Moving easily won't happen soon, because it's not about moving (create a new account isn't that hard), but it's about changing habits. Changing a habit needs : to be forced on people (Meta's way) or to be an act of will.

People are staying on YouTube and enduring ads right now... Plus if Threads is federated they will be a part of the fedi, so no more reason to change. Why change to another instance, if you get on Threads without doing nothing and already are on the biggest instance ?

For the growing possibilities check what happened to XMPP. Is XMPP growing better now ? I don't think so...

People won't leave YouTube because content creators don't want them to. That's it.

Hospital and Nowhere are my fav areas. I like also the city at night in the dark world, it gives a really great madness atmosphere.
