RESEARCH POLL #207

A year out, when the Fediverse is everywhere among business, government, family, school and friends, will you always be comfortable with things like: 1) contacting and discussing personal matters, 2) reaching out to agencies for help, or 3) yammering about a weird interest or hobby in front of your entire social graph of followers? Or will you prolly do what many on Twitter did: use another account just for things you don't want to over-share with your main social network?

I was kinda hoping this question would get people's interest. It's a very important one for several reasons, so please boost it for your friends to answer, as well?

This is a bigger issue than many contemplate at this early stage of fedi evolution. Twitter, Facebook and Tiktok were never going to be the default communications network for the planet. But the fediverse may well become that. And sooner than later. I'm trying to get a jump on some of the downstream issues that I think are inevitable.

@shoq “default communications networks” are like politics. They are downstream from culture.
