    convince others to use your fork.

    Reddit convinced people to use Reddit. Elon Musk convinces people to stay on Twitter. Donald Trump convinces people to vote for him.

    Just maybe the audience level of knowledge about the topics of media is the problem. You. Maybe you are actually attracted to Lemmy because it crashes, just like people flock to Donald Trump because he does bad things. And people flock to HDTV news instead of reading a book on a subject.

    It’s odd but not unexpected that you think the problem is code and does not involve the audience being attracted to certain characteristics. I hear McDondl’s has a lot of customers.
