Now that PewDiePie is on his Linux/engineering arc, could he help boost the Fediverse? (sh.itjust.works)

Pewds has been dabbling more in Linux and engineering content lately, and considering he's essentially retired and doesn’t rely on YouTube ad revenue anymore, wouldn’t it be amazing if he also started posting his videos on PeerTube in parallel?

He can definitely afford to support decentralized platforms and wouldn’t be held back by monetization concerns. With his reach, even just mirroring his content to PeerTube could bring massive attention to the Fediverse. Do you think he'd ever consider it?

We're far away from thousands of votes and comments per post, don't worry.

[email protected] is full of people trying to build communities about popular topics, only to be shouting into the void

The issue is also partially that of those migrating to Linux from windows, in that they try to match their experience, ignoring all the other features they now have acquired. Communities will come organically, when there’s enough people to warrant them. Lots of tech communities as Lemmy users are usually tech affine.

It’s fine if there is not a subreddit clone for everything here yet. Maybe it will come, maybe it won’t.

The only way it'll ever come is if the userbase grows.

Problem is a lot of people don't remember early reddit it was the same way lots of tech folks then grew organic from there.
