Hypothetically if we wanted to make Bitcoin Mastodon a thing, what would it take? Do we have to make Bitcoin Mastodon content more appealing than Bitcoin Twitter?
Any ideas on how this would happen?
@stephanlivera I think we should keep posting the kind of stuff that we like.
I don't censor myself here.
@verretor @stephanlivera I can actually think of one topic where I'd censor myself less.
@pete @verretor @stephanlivera It has to be "cool" for bitcoiners. For me it already is. It's totally in the spirit of Bitcoin. Decentralized. Unstoppable. Run your own instance/node. Maybe if some of the bigger accounts talk about it in this way (rather than "let's just move to something else like Parler") people will get it.
@ibz @verretor @stephanlivera The fact that Parler is going to be down due to censorship in another hour or two certainly helps the case for Mastodon. 😂
@pete @ibz @verretor @stephanlivera How many bitcoiners even know 'what' Mastodon is? Its never come up on my Twitter feed ever & I follow all the main handles.
@KyleJayBonnell @pete @verretor @stephanlivera Most don't. And if they heard about it, they think it's just another Parler. Which it really isn't.
The cool thing is you can join on bitcoinhackers.org in 3 minutes, then later you can set up your own instance and migrate your account over.
I really think some of the bigger accounts should talk about these things. Hence I keep bugging Stephan. ;)
@ibz @KyleJayBonnell @verretor @stephanlivera I think it's easier with the more tech-oriented side of bitcoin, because they do tend to know what mastodon is.
